As the banner says, descendants, or should we say some of the descendants of the Lonni and Kate Sims family, came in from near and far to gather at a "Meet and Greet" at the gazebo bandstand to celebrate during Oktoberfest week.
Mrs Jeanette Shanes, pictured second from right, was honored by the Oktoberfest Committee as "Mayor of The Festival" and 2021 Burgermeister.
Mrs. Shanes was born in April 1927 to Lonnie Sims and Kate Beatty and together with family members gathered in the photograph can trace the family history back many generations.
