Happy New Year 2021
2020 war ein Jahr, das kaum von unserem schönen Hobby geprägt war. Wir waren eher im Lockdown, als in unseren Lodges und waren mehr mit Corona-Maske unterwegs, als mit „Bandanas und Cowboyhut“. Wir vermissen all diejenigen, die ihre Geschichten mit uns am Lagerfeuer teilten und die uns mit ihrer Musik erfreuten. Uns fehlen sowohl die guten Gespräche unter Freunden, als auch der wertvolle Austausch von Wissen. All das, was unser Hobby so interessant und schön macht, blieb in diesem Jahr leider aus.
We are burning to meet and hold workshops together again. We therefore also fervently hope that the general situation will improve again in 2021. However, we won't let it defeat us and therefore also see the New Year as an opportunity to make the moments we spend together as precious as possible.

What happens next in the New Year?
To be honest, it is very difficult for us to estimate. Of course, our hope is very much that the restrictions that are currently in place will have their effect and that the sacrifices that everyone currently has to make will not be in vain. Therefore, we cannot plan events - at least not yet. Of course, this is not only the case for us as Two Rivers Privity, but also for other organizers.
Unfortunately, it was very quiet in 2020. However, we hope that this will change again.
Sobald Lockerungen in Sicht sind, wollen wir, wie bereits in unserem ersten Statement angekündigt, die Authentik-Sonntage wieder ins Leben rufen. Diese gemeinsamen Treffen, zu denen all unserer Mitglieder etwas beitragen können, wollen wir so gestalten, dass jeder mitwirken kann. Den möglichen Themen sind dabei keine Grenzen gesetzt, solange sich die Aktivität auf eine historische Epoche des „Wilden Westens“ bezieht. Auch Interessierten, die bisher keine Berührungspunkte mit der historischen Darstellung haben, wollen wir eine Möglichkeit geben, in den ein oder andern Workshop hinein zu schnuppern.
We will publish here how the concept will look in detail.

What about the Authentic Camp 2021?
Normally, our invitation to the authentic camp is published at the beginning of the year. Since at the moment everything is different as we know it so far, we hold back our invitation for the time being. Of course, we would like to be able to welcome many historical performers this year as well, but here we are dependent on how the situation develops, too.
In any case, we will let you know in time here as well. The targeted date is - as every year - the second week in August.
If all goes well, we hope for a hobby-rich 2021. In any case, we would be very happy about it!

Thank you for your trust and support!
We can't thank you enough for giving us your support and remaining loyal to us even in these difficult times. We wish you and your families a Happy New Year and would like to toast with you in spirit! Here's to a year where we get to spend more time together!
Stay healthy and see you soon!
Happy New Year!
