UNIMOG and tractor meeting in May'19 at Dieter Junker in Nordrach

...a brilliant celebration (the best comes at the bottom ...)

The first UNIMOGs arrive at the "Dieter Junker - Fest 2019" ....

On 18 May 2019, the UNIMOG- und Schlepper-Freunde Biberach e.V. and the members of the UCG Unimog-Club-Gaggenau were invited to Dieter Junker's home in Nordrach. In his professional life Dieter Junker produces glue-free wooden boards for ecological interior finishing with his company GFM-System. However, Dieter Junker is a very big fan of Canada as a private person and has been there very often. But not as a normal tourist but as a "trapper".

Several times he had himself brought into the wilderness by helicopter and then made his way back to civilisation using time-honoured methods. He has experienced quite a lot in the process. Dieter Junker was also able to film some of these experiences; his friend Hansjörg Fritz from Zell (incidentally also a UCG member) created a wonderful film about these experiences in 600 hours. By the way, this and other films can also be bought ... Please send your enquiries to hansjoerg-fritz@freenet.de !

the fairground...

No expense or effort was spared to offer the public (there were around 230 guests) something special: from horseshoe throwing to archery and air rifle shooting, everything was on offer. There was even quad biking. Of course, the bull riding was especially fun. I think it's clear who won in the end...

A very professional team operated the barbecue and there was "plenty of barbecue" at cost price. And the quality of the food was really first class. After the barbecue, the film screening started at 8 pm. The guests who were present were very enthusiastic about it and documented this with a big applause. The creator of the film, Hansjörg Fritz, also received a big applause for his great effort.

After the film screening, we had goulash soup for refreshment and then pictures were shown and commented on by a well-known reporter:

A big surprise came at midnight on the dot - "Captain Jack Sparrow" and his crew from "Pirates of the Caribbean" arrived at the festival loaded with torches and treasure chests. Captain Sparrow rode away in style on a Harley-Davidson. Dieter Junker received his gift after a few dances by the "Captain" and appropriate music: a treasure chest. It contained a rope and matches, as we saw in the film that making fire with rotating wooden sticks doesn't really work that well...

It was an all-round successful festival. Even the rain that kept coming couldn't change anything. This festival will be remembered positively by all visitors for a long time!

PS: there is a film of Captain Sparrow entering the festival. I would like to apologise for the poor quality - I was caught on the wrong foot .....
