Tour

Have you ever seen the commercial of that trendy world
traveling one foot tall figurine called a Gnome?
That's right, he's the one that gets his picture taken in
front of the Eiffel Tower, the Great Wall of China, Niagara Falls, the Pyramids and the
Statue of Liberty.
|
|
Well even though the great Gnome has German origins, we are set to
begin a new German-American tradition ourselves with our very own, one-of-a-kind
German Gourdman named FRITZ... or even more
affectionately known as, "Fritzy" the Baron of Social Blitzing who
was created specifically for
GermanNationUSA by the amazing and talented Domestic Gourdess
Tracy Swartz of Ohio, USA!
Yes that's right... Fritzy is a Gourd!
Again if you own, operate or are involved directly with a
German restaurant, store, organization or festival event like Oktoberfest, Germanfest,
Wurstfest, German auto show, Maifest, Fasching festival, Christmas market, or a German-American
parade... you will definitely want to get in line for the next upcoming FritzBlitzUSA National
Tour in 2010!
