Just in time for Steinm\u00fchle\u2019s traditional fall festival, the scaffolding had been removed from the main building, and the historic half-timbered structure shone in new splendor\u2014renovated inside and out! The event held at the end of every September is not only a crowd-pleaser for the Steinm\u00fchle boarding school, but also always a day full of challenges\u2014for students and teachers alike. <\/p>\n

The school grounds were filling up rapidly on Saturday afternoon, even before the official kickoff at 3 p.m. Parents, relatives, and friends of Steinm\u00fchle gathered in the schoolyard, inside the buildings, and at the boarding school\u2019s sports facilities to learn more and marvel at the activities the students had put together this time. <\/p>\n

Boarding school students baked 55 cakes<\/strong><\/p>\n

Of course, food plays a special role at a celebration like the Fall Festival. The boarding school students have always been in charge here: preparations begin as early as the Friday before. There\u2019s a flurry of activity in the dorm kitchens, and the aroma of fresh cake fills the living quarters. A total of 55 cakes, baked by the boarding students, end up on the sales counter set up between the main building and the administration building. <\/p>\n

In no time at all, all the treats were sold out on Saturday, and the more than 2,500 visitors flocked to the barbecue stand, the beer tent, and the wine tent. The boarding school students also worked and served at these stations, with occasional help from volunteers. Everything tasted great, which explained the large crowds of people who weren\u2019t deterred by the overcast weather or the rain that came later. <\/p>\n

A celebration for alumni, too<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Steinm\u00fchle Fall Festival is always a celebration for alumni as well. Some of them travel from far away to spend a pleasant time at the place where they went to school, enjoying each other\u2019s company and reminiscing. A \u201c10-Year High School Graduation Reunion\u201d took place in the tea room. But there were also visitors who had graduated from the \u201cM\u00fchle\u201d long, long before that. <\/p>\n

An atmospheric celebration with drinks at dusk that lasted until 1 a.m. left its usual marks the next morning. Here, too, boarding school students step in on Sunday at 10 a.m. sharp to clean up, return the dishes, and take down the decorations. With the support of the teaching staff, the grounds are tidied up as if nothing had happened. After all, classes begin promptly at ten past eight the next day for everyone. <\/p>\n
