SUMMARY:February Cultural Meeting
DESCRIPTION:February has Valentine’s Day\, when we celebrate love. Let’s show our love\, fraternalism\, creativity\, and\ngenerosity at the February cultural meeting on Sunday\, February 6th\, by having a fund-raiser to benefit the\nSons of Norway Foundation\, which provides much needed help to members nationwide in times of disaster.\nSince we still have to be flexible because of the ongoing pandemic\, we’ve planned an event which can be\ndone in person\, via Zoom\, or as a hybrid event.  \nLet’s create themed baskets to be auctioned off at the February meeting. Love to bake? Make a basket with cooking\nitems or baked goods. Love the movies? Make a movie night basket. Love to celebrate? Make a wine and cheese basket.\nLove to read? Make a book lover’s basket. Love to garden? Make a basket with seed packets and gardening tools. How\nabout a game night basket\, a Lego basket\, a graphic novel basket\, or a Valentine’s Day hearts and flowers and chocolate\nbasket? This is an opportunity to have some fun\, admire one another’s creativity\, and demonstrate our generosity by\nhelping fellow Sons of Norway members in need. If our meeting is in person\, bring your baskets to the Nordic Hall\nto be auctioned off. If our meeting is by Zoom or is hybrid\, prepare to show us your basket from the comfort of your\nown home. We’ll arrange a time and place for people to meet to claim their baskets. Hint: you are allowed to put\ntogether more than one basket\, and you are not only allowed\, but encouraged\, to bid on more than one basket!  \nProtocol for entering the building: You must show proof of vaccination before entering the Nordic Hall. Masks must\nbe worn. If you are not vaccinated and want to attend the meeting virtually\, send an e-mail to Peter Vatne at\npresident@norumbegasofn.org so he can send you the Zoom link.

SUMMARY:May Cultural Meeting - Zoom
DESCRIPTION:The January 2021 edition of Viking featured member David Ellingson’s kayak adventures through the fjords of Norway. The self-described “water spirit” tackled epic mileage while receiving help from “fjord angels\,” communing with the spirits of his ancestors\, and learning some life lessons along the way. \nIn Ellingson’s video Coming Home\, he recalls times on his family’s Iowa farmstead\, highlighting his increasingly daring paddle trips. Eventually he considered his great-grandparents’ courageous emigration and decided he had to take his own leap of faith and experience the Old Country—by kayak. Follow Ellingson and his fellow paddlers\, nicknamed the Spirit of Norway\, as they recount the highs and lows of their time on the Nærøyfjord\, Sognefjord and Hardangerfjord. \nJoin us to watch this interesting 25 minute video of Ellington’s adventure.  A zoom link will be provided on our Lodge website 30 minutes prior to the meeting  Just go to www.norumbegasofn.org and a pop-up message will appear on the home page shortly after logging in.

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!
