In appreciation for everyone who has made 50 years of Nordic
Fest in Decorah possible, the $50 rate for the limited edition book and DVD has
been extended through Nordic Fest July 28-30, while supplies last.
Books are available online at www.nordicfest.com and at Nordic Fest
Headquarters at the Decorah Area Chamber of Commerce, 507 West Water Street
throughout the event. There is an additional fee if shipping of a book or books
by Nordic Fest is needed. Organizers report book sales are strong.
Nordic Fest hosted its first event in 1967 as a Decorah Area
Junior Chamber (Jaycee) and Vesterheim joint project focused on the authentic
Norwegian cultural connections present in Decorah. Nordic Fest remains uniquely
nonprofit and noncommercial across its 50 year history. Nordic Fest continues
due to the dedication of a wide array of community and Vesterheim volunteers,
as well as the support of the Decorah Area Chamber of Commerce.
All project proceeds will be given to Vesterheim Norwegian
American Museum to support their intake and proper organization of the Nordic
Fest archives during 2016 and 2017..
The project also has a blog at http://nordicfest50.blogspot.com.
The full 50th Nordic Fest brochure is also now
available at www.nordicfest.com.
