That's corect. A friend of mine is a printer. She told me, that it is an old tradition. It symbolizes that they get cleaned off the ink after they finnished the apprenticeship.

In reply to Message (11317) What is gautschfest?
By Soggy Jeans - Sun 25/07/04 08:29:30 GMT Hey everyone, Pardon my cultural ignorance, but for years now I've seen wetlook pictures of guys and girls in jeans and T-shirts being dunked into giant water tanks with the heading "gautschfest". I was wondering if some of the European posters could explain to me exactly what this festival is. I assume it's some kind of celebration, but why all the involuntary gang dunkings?
