cultural heritage and community spirit united at the shooting festival

The shooting festival of the 1896 Sulingen shooting festival again proves to be a highlight of local tradition and community loyalty. On a weekend full of joy, sport and cultural activities, the company celebrated its new majesties and made old customs that were alive three decades ago.

an unusual start with boxing matches

Friday evening opened the festival with a special event: a boxing tournament organized by SV "Falke" Wehrbleck. The boxing ring, which was set up in the marquee, attracted around 200 spectators who were enthusiastic about the fights. This unconventional choice of opening may seem strange at first, but it is part of the tradition of the shooting festival that has been in Sulingen for a long time.

use of traditions to strengthen the community

Andreas Albers, the President of the shooting club, commented on the success of the boxing tournament with the words: "It is nice to see that we can build on old traditions with this event." The focus on fairness and the respectful dealings of the participants among themselves not only promoted the competition, but also the cohesion of the community.

Visit to the retirement home as a sign of connection

Another highlight of the shooting festival was the visit to the shooting club in the “Haus am Suletal” retirement home on Saturday. Under the musical accompaniment of the Marching band "Sound of Sulingen", the members of the company got into conversation with the seniors, which illustrated the spirit of the community and respect for the older generation.

ceremonial crowning of the new majesties

The royal breakfast on Sunday formed the festive framework for the presentation of the new majesties. Anett Schulze, known as "the beaming", climbed the throne together with her prince -grave Harry Schulze. In addition, Emily Rose Wolter was crowned as the new youth queen. The court consists of honorary ladies and an adjutant who play an important role this year.

joint celebrations for all generations

Sunday was all about families. The children were offered an unforgettable experience with bouncy castles, gourmet and an extensive make -up offer. The parents and other family members also had the opportunity to actively participate in the festival. The board of directors of the shooting club drew a positive conclusion and reported on an extremely successful festival.
