HUNTSVILLE – The Military Child Education Coalition will benefit from sales on April 2 at the German Biergarten at the U.S. Space & Rocket Center.

The biergarten is set up at the Saturn V Hall in the Davidson Center for Space Exploration. Event hours will be 4:30 to 7:30 p.m. Chefs David Oreskovich and Jason Williams will prepare authentic German cuisine.

“The menu includes bratwurst, schnitzel or oven-roasted chicken, as well as traditional sauerkraut, red cabbage, cucumber salad, crispy fried potatoes and boiled potatoes,” Nancy L. Jones said.

Jones works as community affairs leader for the Huntsville/Northern Alabama region of the Military Child Education Coalition.

Entrees cost $10 with a choice of two side dishes. Wine, German import and locally made craft beers, warm pretzels and a selection of desserts also will be available.

“The biergarten event is in its third year and is becoming increasing more popular, swelling to over 800 attendees at the height,” Jones said.

The ‘oompah’ band Ein Zwei Duo will entertain, starting at 4:45 p.m. “Traditional German dancers have been added this year,” Jones said. “Also, this event is dog-friendly.”

Event proceeds that the Military Child Education Coalition receives will be used to provide training in North Alabama. In upcoming months, the coalition will offer JS2S (Junior Student2Student) training for junior high students and sponsors, along with ES2S (Elementary Student2Student) training.

The work of the Military Child Education Coalition (MCEC) is focused on confirming that all military children have quality educational opportunities, although they deal with frequent moves, family separation and transitioning to new environments. The coalition is a 501(c)3 non-profit, worldwide organization that performs research, conducts professional institutes and conferences and publishes resources.
