The Saline Lindenberg Committee has decided not to hold the Christkindlmarket this year because of reduced vendor participation. We will concentrate our efforts next year on the two summer/fall activities Summerfest and Harvest of the Arts Oktoberfest.

Website moved!
Friends of Saline-Lindenberg,
We have just completed migrating our web site to Google. Google has just started supplying web site hosting for non-profits at no cost. This will slightly change the appearance, but more importantly, it will improve our shared picture albums and our ability to update the web site. Now you can view and download picture files without signing on to a photo service. The latest pictures from the Lindenberg visit last week are now available for viewing. The URL of the website remains the same http://salinesistercity.org/ . To find the pictures, select the Pictures link on the home page, scroll to the album you want to view and click on the cover picture or the link. You can select any picture in the album by clicking on the picture to see the full size picture then download the file by right clicking the picture and saving it to your disk or printing them. If you have pictures to post on the website, please attach them and return them to this e-mail saline.lindenberg@gmail.com
