| Our
club was founded on January 10th, 1981, after we had gotten the
approval
to do so from John and his office in late December 1980 - today we are
the only official John Denver club in Germany. At this point of time,
it
has about 200 members in Germany, but also in Austria, Switzerland, the
Netherlands, Luxemburg, France, Italy, Great Britain, Australia and the
USA.
Main reason for founding the club all those years ago was to create a possibility for interested fans to be able to always get the newest information about John Denver's concerts, CDs, television appearances etc. Now, after John's fatal accident on October 12, 1997, of course some things have to be changed. Nevertheless, we have decided to go on in any case, and so to help that his music as well as his commitment for a better world won't be forgotten, respectively kept going. A big part of our work will still be putting together our newsletter, which will - as long as it will be possible and as long as there will be interest in it - appear every four months. It will now include album reviews, memories, photos, information which may not be that well-known etc. (here you can find an overview over the latest issue). Of course we also - as far as possible - are happy to answer each question about John, his music etc.. Our club is a member of the "World Family Of John Denver Fan Clubs". That means we are regularly in touch with the other John Denver clubs all over the world - a wonderful opportunity to exchange infos, opinions and also to make new friends. We will also keep alive a "tradition" of the club - once a year, we organize a "Denver Weekend", a club meeting. It is meant for everybody as a chance to get to know each other, chat, sing, watch videos... The proceeds go to a worthy cause, this year for example we have been supporting the Wild Bird Care Center Kirchwald. 1992, 1997 and 2002, we even made the joint effort, along with the other three clubs in Europe, to have an "European John Denver Weekend"... The next one in planned for 2007. In case you would like to join us, we need a written registration from you - please use the registration form. |
