Excerpted from the website:
- About Alpentanzer Schuhplattler
- Alpentänzer Schuhplattler of Sacramento, California is a non-profit organization dedicated to the preservation of Bavarian and Austrian folk dances, costumes (tracht) and culture. Organizations considering a German/Austrian event (Oktoberfest, Maifest, other German theme event) may wish to consider entertainment by the Alpentänzer Schuhplattler, who have been exhibiting authentic Austrian and Bavarian dances for the past twenty years throughout California and the Reno/Tahoe area.
- The group has forty dancers and a live band (The Alpen Tanz Kapelle) which accompanies the dancers. The Alpentänzer Schuhplattler, with their colorful and authentic costumes from Bavaria and Salzburg, is the only German dance group north of Los Angeles that has its own live band to accompany the dancers at the exhibitions.
