Hi all, if any Norwegians are browsing here, the Norwegian community organizes a May 17th Celebration on Sunday May 17th, in the Scandinavian Church. (The celebration here in BsAs is always on a Sunday but for once the day and the date actually coincide.) Send me a PM if you want more info! I do not know what the price is this year but will find out soon I am sure. It is basically a get-together with food, cake, some speeches, some singing, and games for the kids. (May 17th 1814 was the day we got our constitution and also were able to get out of four hundred years of Danish rule. Three weeks later Sweden was able to "take" us, for another 90 years, but we still celebrate May 17th! For an added history lesson, Norway was an independent kingdom from 870 to the late 1300s when Denmark swooped in.)
