German Canadian Hunting & Fishing Club (Hubertushaus)

Officially known as the German Canadian Hunting and Fishing Club. During Oktoberfest our clubhouse is transformed into the Festhall known as Hubertushaus.

We are an authentic German Club nestled on eight acres of countryside on the outskirts of Mannheim. The Club's Members originate from all parts of German speaking areas of Europe and our membership continues with second and third generation Canadians.

In the 50's, many new Canadians had the desire to spend their leisure time hunting and fishing in their new environment. On January 21st, 1954, a group of thirteen dedicated men decided to form a hunting and fishing club so that they could become more familiar with Canada's wildlife and at the same time contribute to the protection and conservation of her immense natural beauty.

Tradition & Culture
From the very beginning the members strived not only to hunt and fish together but to interact socially as well. The first social function to be established was the Hasenpfeffer. Over the years this was followed by Hunters' Day, Fish Fry, Picnic, Schlachtfest, Jaegerball, Oktoberfest and the coveted Christmas and New Year's Eve Parties.To this very day, the desire to interact socially, to promote the preservation of the German language, and to maintain German customs and traditions as well as the German culture remains a focus for all.

Our Future
We continue to have big dreams for our organization and thanks to a collection of members with diverse backgrounds who can provide broad perspective and valuable insights we will endure to shine. Involving new members, expanding membership, and embracing the next generations remains a priority to ensure a new source for continuous energy.
