Abstract

The cover story of the current issue of Wilkommen, a seasonal guide for tourists visiting the amana colonies, is titled "Past Shapes Present amana Colonies." Turn the page, and the inside cover is a collection of ads for old-timey businesses like the amana Stone Hearth Bakery and the amana Meat Shop and Smokehouse, tied together by the phrase "A Reflection of Yesterday/ the Feel of Today." The 2007 amana visitor's guide, called amana Colonies: the Handcrafted Escape, features a little boy shooting out of a waterslide shaped like a barrel at the Wasserbahn, the water park at amana's nearest Holiday Inn. Even the placemats at the Ronneburg Restaurant ooze questionable history; they feature a brief, fairly one-sided account of amana's background, ads for other amana businesses, and a friendly recipe for their authentic German cottage cheese that uses ye olde units of measurement like "a dash" and "some."
