The 11th annual Explore the Eifel information and adventure fair will take place 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. April 29 in Club Eifel at Spangdahlem Air Base, Germany.

The fair is an alternate-duty location and includes information booths, live demonstrations and shows, and activities geared toward sharing German culture and local sites to the U.S. citizens living in the Eifel community. 

More than 150 local participants, including mayors, area officials, Bitburg County representatives, Host Nation Council representatives, honorary commanders, community volunteers, travel and tourist office agents and private establishments will all provide information on the Eifel as well as tailored excursion and event packages in English to Airmen and their families.

The local musical group, the Muddy Creek Kids, will emcee the fair and will be accompanied by various entertainment groups throughout the day.

Base members can visit the booths, view demonstrations and activities inside and outside Club Eifel and participate in games for prizes during the fair.  Booth representatives will have sign-up sheets available for tours or activities during the Explore the Eifel adventure weekends, which will take place May 1-3 with additional tours offered later in May and June.
