Schützenfest Altena (Friedrich-Wilhelms-Gesellschaft)

In 2025, the FWG Altena focused on preparations for the grand Schützenfest in 2026. At the club level, shooting competitions, meetings, and the annual smaller club festival took place. The five companies — Rahmede, Freiheit, Mühlendorf, Nette, and Kelleramt — prepared the company formations, platoon order, and king candidates for 2026 during this phase.

Even without a major festival, the FWG remained present in Altena's social life through club activities and the preservation of customs.
