TRANSCRIPT
President’s Column It was marvelous to see so many attend the September social and the cream can dinner
was so fitting for fall, one starts to get hungry
for some of those comfort meals. It was
wonderful that the Eagles agreed to make that
type of meal for us and we thank them for it.
Sverdrup attended the Missouri River
International Festival at the YMCA on
September 15th, it was exciting to see all the different cultures that participated in the
event. There was dancing, food samples from different cultures, items to
purchase and programs to take in. If you didn’t make it this year, I
encourage you to attend next year, we all need to learn about each
other.
Going with the theme of the variety cultures in the area, the word is out
that Bismarck will be celebrating its 150th birthday in 2022 by promoting
and highlighting the different cultures with all kinds of activities and programs. Sverdrup, of course, is looking at participating in this event in
whatever way we can, so when asked to help out, I’m hoping you will
answer with a good strong “Ja, you betcha”!
I want to thank those that have been repairing and painting the stabbur,
it was much needed. We applaud those members that have taken the
time to care for our park and the two stabbur. Thank You!
Remember the social next month is a week early on October 11th.
Tusen Takk!

Tubfrim
For 90 years Norway has been collecting used stamps and phone cards. At first it was to help children with tuberculosis and then later expanding
its program to help hundreds of handicapped children, as well as
supporting tuberculosis research The Sons of Norway has been saving
and sending stamps to Norway for over 60 years to help in this endeavor. To be a part of this effort, please bring your used stamps to a
lodge meeting. Erling Olson is our Tubfrim Chair and he will be happy to
accept stamps from you. Trim the
stamps to 1/4 inch around the
stamp to preserve the quality of the stamp. They can come from any
country in the world and are
purchased by stamp collectors.
