Freudenfest
Our Mission:
The Freudenfest, meaning "festival of fun”, is a non profit organization that originated in 1976 by volunteers who envisioned holding a “family fun day”.
The mission then is the same today, “to provide a high quality festival that celebrates the richness of our German Heritage community through people having a fun day with their family and friends”.
The annual reunion has fondly become known as: "The Biggest Little German Festival in Indana"
