Notes

The Liberty Home Association can possibly trace its origins to an organization known as the Allgemeiner Deutscher Unterstützungs Verein, or the Universal German Assistance Club. In 1903, the German Federation of Hamilton was formed, consisting of seven German-American organizations, representing more than 900 members. The purpose of the Federation was to unite all Germans and to protect their interests in their adopted country. The Liberty Home Association still retains many of its German related, folksy events, where both young and old members can enjoy their culture. The Liberty Home Association has given much to Hamilton County and Butler County and still strives to retain, use and preserve German – the real binding force of its existence. We welcome all people from the surrounding area to visit our club, particularly at events specifically hosted as such, the most popular being the Oktoberfest, always the weekend of Labor Day.

My husband and I strive to be informed and welcoming citizen diplomats and have been very impressed with the community involvement that the World Affairs Council offers to ensure and foster the knowledge, exposure and opportunity to do so in our local schools, business communities and public at large. My children delight in the exposure to different cultures, ways of thinking and languages. I like knowing that as an organization, we’re making a meaningful impact at home and abroad.”
