Viking Jul and Winter Solstice Celebration

Details

Velkommen! We are having a get together to celebrate Jul and the Winter Solstice (Dec. 21st). Jul is what Norwegians call Christmas. Jul has its origins in the Old Norse word jol. This word was used to describe the midwinter celebration and the winter solstice in Norse Culture.
I thought this would be the perfect opportunity to have a meet and greet since this is a new group. You are welcome to wear Viking attire. I will have a display table with some items I use in Viking re-enactment. I will also bring some Scandinavian snacks. We will have some Norse music also. There will be some give aways for those who attend and stay til the end. You must check in with me to get your ticket for the drawing. (There might be a flight of mead involved =)
The mead at Strad Meadery is really good. If you would like to bring a snack to share that would be great!
We will have a fire pit outside and I will have some items you can use to assemble for an offering for Jul/Winter Solstice.
If we have time, we will do a Scandinavian craft.
I am really looking forward to meeting our new members.
Skal!!
