Grouw 's official Frisian name is Grou, a "vlek" in Boarnsterhim municipality, Fryslân. It used to be the seat of the former municipality of Idaarderadeel. Grou is the center of watersports south of Leeuwarden, with a railway station on the line Leeuwarden - Heerenveen. In the 19th century the brothers Eeltsje and Joast Halbertsma lived here, poets, who are considered as the fathers of the Frisian cultural revival. While the rest of the Netherlands celebrate "Sinterklaas" on 5 Dec, Grou (together with Ameland) celebrates Sint Pieter on 22 Feb - it involves kids getting present, etc.
