July 18, 2014 Update
It has been about a month since our dinner at Pinehaven Country Club. It was a great success, 102 Scandinavians for cocktails, great dinner and conversation. The six relatives from Sweden that attended had a splendid time. We have had over 20 emails telling us what an excellent time it was and what do we plan next. Some people have mentioned monthly get togethers but we feel that is too much. Maybe once or twice a year.
Please send us your thoughts and we will get back with you.
Also if you have an event coming up we will be happy to list it on our website. Please just send us the details at [email protected].
Thanks!
