Proud of the troupe

"since april we first rehearsed in the kindergarten. After the reading we studied individual scenes and finally act by act. It was difficult to find suitable dates for all of them. Only seven times we were full. We were only able to rehearse twice on the stage in the gymnasium. Nevertheless it worked out very well. I am proud of my troupe", so zwirlein after the opening night.
A special challenge was the stage design, as zwirlein began. Instead of a standard living room, a modern hotel had to be created. "We are very grateful to the furnishing house angermuller for the furniture, fensterbau schuler for the terrace and holzdesign plescher for the scenery. The local clubs also helped us with sound and light equipment", said the director.

The men seek adventure in the nearby nightclub, where they admire the dancers and even bring a bra to the hotel. Where to hide and what for?

While the women are dreaming of dinner, the men are totally dissatisfied with "portions for the hollow tooth" and "cheap meat as a rip-off". The evening can not end like this.

"We've done a good job of moving the fire department forward in the last 20 years and we've made a lot of progress", says ottmar bohnlein. For the last 17 years he was the first commander for the rimbach floriansjunger in action. Bohnlein is very proud of the good cooperation, the enthusiasm and the team spirit of his comrades. An attractive fire station, well-trained firefighters and modern equipment are the guarantee that the fire department of the volkach district is doing so well.

The fact that bohnlein did not stand for re-election on saturday and that a successor was found spontaneously is evidence of the willingness to take on responsibility in the village. As the new first commander, matthias gotz will be leading the fire brigade in the future. The deputy commander has also been relieved of his duties. Werner graber took over the office of second commander, previously held by bjorn fischer.

According to bohnlein, eight men and women passed the performance test "the group in the fire brigade". Several training courses and fire department training sessions had preceded the training.

The demand of the new generation stands in rimbach for many years in the foremost place. 16 young people are involved in the two youth groups, which the commander personally leads. "I joined the youth fire department at the age of 16, back then in my birthplace of alitzheim", tells bohnlein. After his wedding, the 48-year-old came to rimbach and immediately joined the local floriansjungern there.
