Dear Drott Lodge Members and Friends, Exciting times are ahead in the next two months! First, we’ll participate in the Icelandic Bazaar on November 9th, followed by our Sounds of Sweden – A Soiree on November 16th. Then comes our appearance at the SWEA Holiday Bazaar on December 7th, and finally, our Lucia and Christmas celebration in partnership with ASA on December 8th. Check out the events page for all the details. A particular highlight will be the Sounds of Sweden – A Soiree on November 16th. Four of our talented local Swedish and Scandinavian musicians will treat us to an array of traditional Scandinavian folk music, jazz guitar, Swedish and American classics, and popular tunes. Featured performers include Skandal, Fredagskvartetten, Al Bauman and Anders Ljungholm, and The Kensingtones. There will be ample opportunities for dancing—and maybe a little ABBA too! Light refreshments will be served. This event is free, but advanced registration is required, and spots are limited, so sign up soon! I had the unique experience of spending time as a Viking on October 5th, serving as part of the rowing crew on an authentic Viking longship, the Sea Hrafn. Drott Lodge members spent the day rowing and sailing on the bay with the Longship Company who built a replica viking ship. We may have had a few more blisters on our hands by the end of the day, but it was worth it to connect with our distant heritage! It was an unforgettable experience, even without Viking helmets or weapons—and no, we didn’t raid any nearby towns! As always, we welcome any members willing to volunteer. With so many activities and events, extra helping hands are greatly appreciated. In Generosity, Truth and Unity, Arne Dunhem Chairman |

| IKEA College Park Halloween Fair & Outdoor Movie NightTwo members from Drott Lodge joined in the Halloween fun at College Park IKEA, handing out candy to excited local kids at this year’s Halloween Fair on October 18. The night wrapped up with an outdoor movie screening of Hocus Pocus, giving everyone a chance to relax as the sugar rush began to fade. Kids loved the games, danced to Halloween classics like Monster Mash, This is Halloween, and Spooky Scary Skeletons, and showed off an impressive array of costumes! Spiderman and Batman were crowd favorites, alongside happy dinosaurs, prom queens, Harry Potters, and plenty of beloved video game characters. It was a night of community, laughter, and Halloween magic! |
