Alternative to July 4th celebration -- If you are not able to participate in the holiday celebration at military bases, you can still take in a July 4th celebration in Tübingen, where the German-American Institute Tübingen will host its summer party on Sunday, July 6 from 10 a.m. until 7 p.m.

The event will be held at the Botanische Garten located on 123 Hartmeyer Street in Tübingen. This will be an American-style summer BBQ fest with live music performances by “Louisiana Funky Butts� with their New Orleans brass music and Country band “Devil & Soehne�. Other activities will include a mechanical bull, tour of the botanical gardens, many children’s programs and American-style BBQ food and drink selections.

Hope to see you there!!
