Alpha Company Soldier and Family Readiness www.facebook.com/AlphaCompanySFRG Celebrate Carnaval, have fun, but be safe! Carnaval or Fashing is an important local tradition and this year it is celebrated February 7-9. Shops in Limburg and parts of Germany will close while pubs and bars will stay open until at least 3 a.m. The streets will overflow with Carnaval revelers and parades. If held up by a parade, don¡¯t try to cut through the revelry. It could cause a serious accident and it shows a lack of respect for host nation cultural events. Also due to recent incidents in Cologne and other cities it is best to be careful and remain vigilant when in a large crowd or gathering. If enroute to USAG Benelux-Schinnen and a parade is in progress, park the car and enjoy the festivities. But remember to be safe and don¡¯t drink and drive!
