    3D Third District Today November 2015 Happy Veteran’s Day Happy Thanksgiving Published by Ron Martinsen, 3D Pub. Rel. Dir. 3D SofN Facebook Page https://www.facebook.com/TheThirdDistrictoftheSonsofNorway The mission of Sons of Norway is to promote and to preserve the heritage and culture of Norway, to celebrate our relationship with other Nordic countries, and to provide quality insurance and financial products to its members. Fra Presidenten, Mary B. Andersen 1 If you don’t do it, who will? It’s that time of year when we begin thinking about lodge officer positions. We get comfortable and it becomes too easy to say “they” will do it or “she always does that for us”. Many of our members have “been there, done that” a few times! If you haven’t held a lodge position, why not? Lodges don’t run on their own. Often times, it is a core group of people who year after year take care of everything. It is time to give them a break! Why should you become a lodge officer? You learn a lot about Sons of Norway when you are elected to an officer position, including: How a lodge is run Where the lodge gets it’s funds from What is involved in planning an activity How the lodge relates to the District and All the various forms (no fun, but necessary). More importantly, you learn to connect with your fellow members both within your lodge and your Zone. Yes, it does involve some work, but the rewards are many, ask a current or former officer.
