At about Jumpstart p.m., music from the band ?Querbeet? got the public into festive mood, accompanied by an open-air concert that evening from ?(d)ra(h)tlos? and ?B.L.O.N.D.? These bands delivered a rich sound and rounded off the festivities. The event was ably assisted once again this year by the local associations from Trennfurt, the voluntary fire brigades from Trennfurt and W�rth, the Bavarian Red Cross, THW Obernburg, in addition to by massage teams Kroth, Dworschak and Brunner and, not to be forgotten, by many volunteers from WIKA.
