SUMMARY:Juletrefest (Virtual)
DESCRIPTION:Norumbega’s annual juletrefest will be celebrated on Friday\, December 4th\, on Zoom.  Some things will be different; some things will be the same. We will sing our traditional songs\, even if we can’t join hands and go around the tree. We can still join our voices and share the holiday spirit. In between the songs\, we’d like you to share the things that make Christmas special to you: special traditions\, favorite cookies\, favorite ornaments on the tree\, special dessert\, memorable moments in your family\, etc. \nLuana has gotten word from the “julenissen’s” communications director that we’re on his calendar this year as well\, so we won’t have to miss out on that. The gift exchange will be different so you will need to check the December Tidende for details about how it will work. \nThe recipient of the travelling almond will be revealed! \nSee you all on December 4th!

SUMMARY:September Cultural Meeting
DESCRIPTION:We are now living through a difficult time in that we can not meet physically together due to the Corona virus restrictions.  However\, modern technology does allow us to meet virtually with video meeting software.  While this changes our preferred way of getting together it provides opportunities to associate with each other. \nThe traditional welcome back dinner for our September meeting can not be done this year unfortunately.  However\, we will hold a virtual Zoom meeting for all who want to attend.  The time will be rolled back to 7:30 pm and you will get login information via email as we get closer to the date.  Since this year marks the 50th anniversary of our lodge we will hope that members will share what the lodge has meant to them over the years.  This could include reminiscing about special events that were especially memorable from years past or stories about members who are not with us anymore.  Whatever you wish to share is going to be welcomed during the online meeting.  For those without computers\, a call-in number will be provided so that you can participate. \nNOTE: This particular meeting is being held on a Saturday evening.

SUMMARY:June Virtual Cultural Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Since we may not be able to gather in large groups by the date of our June cultural meeting\, we decided at the May Board meeting to try for a Zoom get together.  So prepare to join our virtual meeting at 7:30 p.m. on Friday\, June 5th\, so we can touch base\, share our quarantine experiences (and quarantine hairdos)\, find out about lodge scholarship awards\, have a cup of coffee or a glass of wine (since no one is driving)\, and hear about plans for the summer and fall.  Wear your best Norwegian tee-shirt\, cap\, or face mask!  Be creative. \nIf you would like to join us you must send an email with your desired email address to Zoom@Norumbegasofn.org and we will send you the Zoom link prior to the event.  Be sure to indicate that you are signing up for the June Virtual Cultural Meeting. \nLet’s give this a try!

SUMMARY:May Cultural Meeting - CANCELLED
DESCRIPTION:Unfortunately\, our May Cultural Meeting has been cancelled due to the Covid19 issues.  We will attempt to schedule Wendy for a future meeting. \nOur May cultural meeting will feature author Wendy Swallow.  She has written a book titled “Searching for Nora; After the Doll’s House.” \nHer new novel\, Searching for Nora: After the Doll’s House\, follows Nora as she struggles to make a life for herself in Kristiania (now Oslo) and then escapes Norway in disguise\, a passenger on an emigrant ship and soon a reluctant settler in the harsh Minnesota prairie. \nSearching for Nora tells a tale that is both intimate and sweeping.  Nora’s narrative\, written as a memoir\, spreads over four decades and is woven together with the story of a second character\, Solvi Lange\, a young university student in Norway in 1918.  Solvi seeks to unravel the mysteries of her grandfather’s hidden shame and the fate of a long-vanished Norwegian feminist. \nFor more information click here
