The Little Christmas party is non-formal, highly festive, and themed after Christmas. The Little Christmas parties are held by various communities, organizations, companies, or just among friends. The most traditional Christmas drink is called “glögg” (the Swedish equivalent of the German Glühwein or mulled wine), which can be served with or without alcohol. Glögg, gløgg, glögi and similar words are the terms used for mulled wine in the Nordic countries. This is made of red wine and spiced with cinnamon, ginger, clove, raisins, and almonds, and served warm.

Thank you for good officers and committee folks and thank you to those who are willing to take new offices for next year. We are preparing for a busy year again with our 100th anniversary celebration in April and our annual Frokost for Syttende Mai. There will also be another Leif Erickson day and our Rommegrot went over very well last year so more to think about. We have a wonderful group of workers who always come through when needed. I also want to welcome all new members that have joined us in 2015 and hope they will become an active part of our lodge. Let’s all make them feel welcome. There are some good programs already arranged and more in the works, more ideas are always welcome. Also please remember our members who are in nursing homes and those suffering from health issues with cards or visits. Ron and I want to wish you all a very God Yule and a wonderful 2016.
