Anyone who wants to take part in the Masskrug-Stemmen stein-lifting competition in San Sebastián de los Ballesteros must sign up before Wednesday, October 21. Registration is formalized at the Town Council, as the Consistorio itself reports.

A stein held high for as long as possible

The test consists of holding a stein high for as long as possible. Participants thus compete to show their strength and endurance, in an activity inspired by German traditions. The competition is part of the second edition of «Glücksland: sabor y herencia colona», the municipal program centered on the municipality's colonial heritage. The Town Council presents it as one of the «most fun and eagerly awaited» activities of that schedule.

What you have to do to take part

Interested persons must register in advance at the Town Council. The deadline ends on Wednesday, October 21, so the application must be submitted before that date. The Consistorio has not specified in its announcement the day, time or place where the competition will be held, nor whether participation has any cost or a limit on places.
