I would never have made the complete weekend without collapsr I am sure that I have forgotten to say thank you to someone or some group and for this I apologize. We are grateful to all who gave or helped in any way. The bottom line to our successful weekend is the financial end. As of this writing a complete financial report is not possible because many loose ends have to be closed up; But it would appear that our profit on the car activity and flea market will be approximately $3,200, and our restaurant profit approximately $500, making the grand success story amount to $3,700. We will be able to add to our regular programming and make the future activities better. Back to the usual routine. Tuesday as always was our regular luncheon get together and we had a very nice large group to enjoy a lunch of roast beef sandwich, tossed salad, potato chips, and birthday cake with ice cream. The birthday cake was to celebrate Ceil Quinn's July 13 birthday and as always we sang a happy birthday EINS, ZW£I. OSUFFA!

Our program for the day was presented by Mildred Zimmerman of Voorheesville, a member of the retired senior volunteers program of the Capital District. She had a slide presentation of old houses around the world which was very beautiful and interesting. Mildred has traveled extensively to many countries and consequently she has a tremendous collection of slides to show. ' . ' i Due to several factors our planned trip to Cannandagua and Sonnenburg Gardens next Tuesday has been canceled and put off until sometime in August. We are planning a shorter trip to Dolge- ville and the Daniel Greene shoe outlet with luncheon in Utica and a visit to the' Allegro shoe factory on our return home. This will be on Tuesday, July 2d. . Next Tuesday the 19th we will have our luncheon prepared by our regular volunteers at the parish center at 12:30 as usual. A program not yet decided on will follow the lunch. All Altamont Seniors are welcome to join us for companion- ship, good food and fun. Just call 861-6030, the senior citizens phone, by Monday morning and tell us you would like to be with us for .the day. One last comment for the week. We.are very grateful for all of the co-operation and support that we have had all these years. Without all tiie many contributions of time and talent and finances that we have received we could not have continued to be active for almost nine years. This is truly a volunteer senior citizens program. Its 25th Anniversary By CAROL DUBBIN Willie Schepp's Student Prince. Restaurant has been filling the Helderberg Mountain air with rollicking German music and the aroma of good German food for 25 years now. The silver anniversary was .celebrated June 24 with a capacity crowd. Ronny Tobler, a European recording star, was the featured performer. The interesting part of that is that he had his start right there at the Student Prince 20 years ago. He had followed .that start by going to Europe — Holland and Germany — to continue his career there. But the real story is Willie Schepp, who was bprn in Cologne. Gprmanyjahd Ijved 1 in the fairiousi German aCdllegfe town '%t$$$b0 berg.. This was the setting of the greafc^igmund Jtombergte? *&&£' .derilt Pance\ o^eHir wftj®- famous college; There he was with the U:S. Special Services and he performed for our troops, \Drink- ing Song.\ This was a memory Willie brought to this country. He is a complete musician, both composer and performer, and played in the German Yorkville, section of New York City before coming to the Capital District, where he worked at both Otto's in Latham and Emmy's Brahaus on Route 85. He liked the hill country of the Helderbergs and bought some property up there that had a partially erected house on it. There he first completed the house, then made A little lake.\ Really getting into creating, he went on to build a motel. Rut that wasn't enough. He dreamed of a restaurant such as those back in Heidelberg and he designed it like a Uttie castle. He then set about making \ that design, beeome a reality arid' with his own hands constructed the restaurant. The interior he copied after-a German beer garden complete, with shields of the old city-states on the walls and he opened in 1958. In 1960 he took time, out to proudly become an American citizen. He still has the newspaper clipping that pictures him and tells of his little speech of gratitude at that celebration. In 1971, Willie added his outdoor beer garden where'many 'have enjoyed the music and hospitality in the Helderberg surroundings. In - honor of this he has composed a song he - features at all his programs, the Helderberg iBgrjnk- {•Theresas ,a» $jffianc,e fiooj* urHhe garden and .Sunday afternoons (4 $Lm.) oachi week foff the £umftier : therels^a German bandtpr lively polkas and other danceable songs. Willie himself plays the accordian, the organ r and drums; and often performs for his patrons. Top all of this off with the cooking of Christina Schepp, Wil- lie's wife, and you can see why the Student Prince is a favorite place to go for many in the Capital District. Congratulations on this' silver anniversary. We wish you at least another 25 years!
