A Special Thank You
Many amazing friends have helped us reach the milestone of our 10th anniversary in 2023. We’re grateful to each of them for their kindness and generosity of time and many other resources and are appreciative of their vision and dedication. While we can’t name everyone who has made the European Christmas Market what it is today, we’d like to note some who especially went above and beyond in the very early days when we were building what this tradition is today. These include: Clint Roberts and One Simple Plan, The John Huss Foundation, The Saint Paul Foundation, James E. Johnson and Peter Pearson. They all believed in the European Christmas Market’s dream and were true cultivators of our success in the beginning of our journey, and through the 10-year milestone we celebrate and commemorate now. They’re joined by our very first and continuing vendors and amazing volunteers Birgit John and German Traditional Crafts LLC., Lucy Egberg and Jennifer Iburg Schmit and Roseberry Kids, Greg Sullwold and Cinnamon Roasted Almonds, Erika Neidert and German Specialty Imports, Ferdinand Peters, Esq., Christian Engelbrecht, Sasha Aslanian, Paula Laudenbach, and Ron Machel.
Their important impact lives with us and continues to push us forward, and is carried on with tender and abiding love by the 2023 European Christmas Market board of directors, and our executive director, Nadine Schaefer.
