Group Outing: A Daysail on the Kalmar Nyckel

Saturday, August 25, 2018 4pm-6:30pm

A group from Drott Lodge will be taking a 2.5 hour sailing trip on the reproduction of the 17th century vessel which first brought colonists to "New Sweden" (Delaware) in the 1630s. We will sail out of the historic port of New Castle, Delaware (approx. 2 hours from DC). To get your tickets to join in ($60 for adults, $40, children) go to www.kalmarnyckel.org and look for 4pm August 25th under tour schedule. Directions to the port are also on the website.

Only a few seats are remaining, so do not delay to avoid disappointment. If you are looking to carpool with someone going from Drott Lodge, contact our cultural leader, Marit at mknollmueller@yahoo.com and she will try to coordinate arrangements.

Kalmar Nyckel

Our local lodge, Drott Lodge No. 168, was chartered on February 18th, 1910 in Washington, D.C. and is one of four local lodges governed by District Lodge No. 9 Pennsylvania. Today, Drott Lodge maintains a multi-generational roll of 200-plus members from the District of Columbia, Maryland, and Virginia. The Lodge meets most 2nd Sundays of the month at St. James' Episcopal Church in Potomac, Maryland. Most meetings include a regular business meeting followed by a cultural presentation by a visiting speaker or a member of the lodge. The Lodge is well known throughout the greater Washington metropolitan area for its annual Swedish Bazaar held the first Saturday in November.
