If you think you’ll be able to come\, please \nlet Luana know (vicepresident@norumbegasofn.org) by Friday\, April 19th\, so she can make sure there will be enough tables and chairs (and cake) to accommodate everyone.

SUMMARY:November Cultural Meeting
DESCRIPTION:L’Anse aux Meadows \nWhat is L’Anse aux Meadows? \nWhere is it located? \nIs it a real historical place? \nWhy is it important to Nordic and American History? \nThese questions and more will hopefully be answered at our November cultural meeting.  Pete Hanson will be sharing from his experience of having traveled to the historic site with several other Sons of Norway members.  This site has generated a number of theories and surprising explanations as historians try their best to interpret the Viking era writings called sagas.  Ultimately\, the theories and discussions bring into play our own local Boston area and other parts of New England.  Did the Vikings land in New England over 400 years before Christopher Columbus?

SUMMARY:October Cultural Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Fridtjof Nansen is considered the godfather of all modern polar explorers. In 1888 (at age 26)\, he became the first person to successfully cross Greenland from coast to coast.  At age 31 he organized and led a second expedition to the North Pole; although he and his crew ultimately did not reach the Pole\, they came closer than anyone had come before\, beating the previous record  by 150 miles. Timothy Boyce will describe who Nansen was\, how and why he organized his polar explorations\, focusing on the incredible challenges his voyages faced\, and his indomitable will to overcome all obstacles.  This lecture will also touch upon Nansen’s post-explorer career as statesman and humanitarian. \nThis meeting will also be in-person as well as on Zoom so watch for the link on the lodge website homepage

SUMMARY:Fair Kick-Off Meeting
DESCRIPTION:For Table Chairpeople and interested Members of the Lodge. \nAs you may know schools are struggling with how much they can open up in the Fall given Covid 19.  This means that we do not know if we will be able to rent space this year from Acton-Boxboro.  We have been told that we should know by the end of July.  Therefore our Fair Kick-off meeting takes on additional decision making as we may have to plan alternative actions. \nIf you would like to join this meeting via Zoom please email Zoom@norumbegason.org and let me know.
