Any member at-large interested in participating in these meetings is invited and encouraged to do so. An Operations Team, consisting of members elected to serve on the Nordic Lodge Building Association, a 501c2 organization, advises Lo

Our activities each month Sept - June include a general membership meeting usually accompanied by an engaging cultural program, a tasty lunch and time for visiting and sharing stories. Members of the public are welcome to most meetings. We also have a monthly Game Day, a Craft Day, and a Soup & Cinema day. There's also an occasional "Movie Night" . Last but not least, we have a book club that focuses on titles that have either a Scandinavian theme or author. Special celebrations every year for members & their families/friends include a Julefest, Midsommarfest and a Syttende Mai party. For the community around us we have a Veterans Appreciation Night, Lutefisk Dinner, a Crab Feed, and a Troll Stroll. You'll see our Viking Boat Float in most major holiday parades on the island, north and south.
