Tips & Advice
- Register by the 6 October deadline, in person at the Stadtbücherei, by phone or by email, because the calendar is limited to 25 participants.
- Start your 24 identical gifts early, whether crafted, sewn, woodworked or baked, so every one is finished and wrapped before the exchange evening.
- Wrap each gift decoratively and label it with the calendar number you get by email, which every participant receives by 8 October.
- Park at the free Regenstorplatz lot, about six minutes' walk from the library, because the Stadtbücherei has no parking of its own.
- Use the Freier Hof car park if you want the shortest walk, about two minutes to the library, though it charges a fee.
