Carving turnips together in the hall of the Labör, warming up by the fire in the parlor. Each child makes their own Räbeliechtli for the procession; turnips and string are provided, few carving tools are on site, so bring your own. Children come accompanied by an adult. The turnips are sponsored by the Quartierverein Oerlikon; the Labör is only partly heated by a wood stove, so dress for the weather.
