Cultural Traditions-
As Aviston continues
to change and reflect the growing diversity of the
United States, longstanding German traditions and values
are still embedded in the community.
During the 1800s
German immigrants flooded into the area and soon
dominated the cultural and physical landscape.
Many early German
settlers in Aviston placed a high value on education and
the arts, a tradition that continues today.
