We were invited to the "Conference Annuelle des Jeunes Adultes Francophiles", the Young Adult Camp for French-speaking young adults, in Lenk in the Simmental, to play our alphorns for the opening night, and to give an alphorn workshop the next day. Since the Swiss were hosting (the young adults were from France, Belgium, and many other countries besides Switzerland), they had a welcome table set up, with samples of fondue, chocolate, other treats, and a mannequin head with an apple on it and toy crossbows to use to try to shoot the apple off. We played our alphorns off and on all afternoon, as people arrived.
How fun...I was hoping to see the mannequin head. Where can I get one of those aprons?
