Pavilions are being set up, performances are being rehearsed, and class booths are being prepared. The smell of fresh baked goods wafts through the dorms. Preparations for the 43rd Fall Festival are in full swing.<br \/>\n\u201cThe <strong>Autumn Festival tradition<\/strong> dates back <strong>to 1971<\/strong>, when we celebrated together for the first time,\u201d says Edeltraud Buurman. \u201cWe wanted to create a suitable setting where alumni could reunite once a year at \u2018their\u2019 Steinm\u00fchle. That idea was the origin of the Fall Festival as we celebrate it today.\u201d<br \/>\nThis year, the alumni from the class of 1974 had planned to arrive at 11 a.m. They were warmly welcomed by Edeltraud Buurman in the festively decorated tea room. After the welcome, they set off on a tour of the grounds.<br \/>\n<strong>\u201cIt\u2019s been 40 years since we graduated<\/strong> \u2014I can\u2019t believe it!\u201d remarked one of the graduates. On the steps of the main building, Ms. Buurman asked the excited group to pose for the obligatory commemorative photo. As the tour continued, everyone reminisced: \u201cMy boarding school career began right here in the main building; I was in the Sexta back then, and now it feels like I\u2019m coming home.\u201d After an extensive tour of the impressive grounds, all the alumni agreed: \u201cWe\u2019re moving back in! What do you think of a multigenerational boarding school?\u201d<br \/>\nAs the day went on, the Steinm\u00fchle filled up, and many old acquaintances were spotted.<br \/>\nOver culinary delights and a varied program, everyone enjoyed the reunion and had plenty of exciting stories to share. The day flew by, and the group laughed and celebrated together late into the night.     <strong>A big thank you to everyone who once again made our celebration so special! See you next year! <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/steinmuehle.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/MG_8463.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-3672 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/steinmuehle.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/MG_8463-300x199.jpg\" alt=\"_MG_8463\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/steinmuehle.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/IMG_9742.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-3674 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/steinmuehle.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/IMG_9742-300x199.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_9742\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/steinmuehle.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Luft.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-3673 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/steinmuehle.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/MG_8476-300x199.jpg\" alt=\"_MG_8476\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-3675 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/steinmuehle.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Luft-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"DCIM119GOPRO\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/steinmuehle.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/MG_8445.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-3671 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/steinmuehle.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/MG_8445-300x199.jpg\" alt=\"_MG_8445\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/steinmuehle.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/IMG_9594.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-3654\" src=\"https:\/\/steinmuehle.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/IMG_9594-300x199.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_9594\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/steinmuehle.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/IMG_9307.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-3653 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/steinmuehle.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/IMG_9307-300x199.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_9307\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/steinmuehle.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/IMG_9451.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-3663 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/steinmuehle.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/IMG_9451-300x199.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_9451\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/steinmuehle.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/MG_8423.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-3669 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/steinmuehle.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/MG_8423-300x199.jpg\" alt=\"_MG_8423\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/steinmuehle.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/MG_8442.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-3670 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/steinmuehle.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/MG_8442-300x199.jpg\" alt=\"_MG_8442\" width=\"300\" height=\"199\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/steinmuehle.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/MG_8374.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-3668 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/steinmuehle.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/MG_8374-200x300.jpg\" alt=\"_MG_8374\" width=\"200\" height=\"300\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Saturday, September 27, 2014, at 3:00 p.m., the school and boarding school administration welcomed their guests under bright sunshine for the traditional fall festival at the Steinm\u00fchle.
