Danish House Society President’s Report

1 Jun

Sum­mer is fast approach­ing and we will all be able to enjoy our sunny and hot weather; at least I hope we are going to have a good summer.

On April 18th, every­one enjoyed Queen Margrethe’s birth­day cel­e­bra­tion that was spon­sored along with the Royal Dan­ish Guard orga­ni­za­tion. It was an evening of fine enter­tain­ment from Den­mark and a won­der­ful menu served.

We are fast approach­ing our Mid­sum­mer Fes­ti­val where the Dan­ish House will have a tent to dis­play our Dan­ish cul­ture. This year’s fes­ti­val theme is “Sun­shine & Song”. I encour­age every­one to come and par­tic­i­pate in this fun and excit­ing week­end. You will be able to enjoy our tra­di­tional open-faced sand­wiches, BBQ salmon, and so much more. This year’s raf­fle prize is a Cruise for Two. Please see one of the board mem­bers or visit the Dan­ish tent to help sup­port the sell­ing of the tickets.

On July 4th, we will be host­ing the “Flik­Flak Cir­cus” in the beer gar­den area. This is a Dan­ish cir­cus that is great fam­ily fun. It will start at 1pm, and you will be able to buy polse and potato salad, cot­ton candy and beverages.

On August 23, the Dan­ish house is host­ing the Fam­ily BBQ. The cost is $22 and you will have a choice between salmon or steak. This is a very nice fam­ily event for all to par­tic­i­pate in.

Our very pop­u­lar KroAften will con­tinue through the sum­mer. This is a great even and I want to thank both Carol and Ebba for a great job.

See you soon at the Centre!
