Summer Solstice Event - open to Scandinavian Society members and their friends
In Public

 Welcome the Summer Solstice on Saturday, June 22 , 2pm - "fire goes out" at member Myra Jerome's house on an ocean cove at 1653 Ostrea Lake Road, Musquodoboit Harbour, NS  B0J 2L0.  We will get together and have a St. Hans fire!

 
According to Danish legend, the summer solstice is a night imbued with evil spirits.  To guard against the evils of the witches, an effigy of one is put on top of a big bonfire, which will send the witch blazing off to Bloksbjerg, a mountain in Northern Germany.
 
We will enjoy a meal together on the lawn.  Please bring your own chairs, food, drinks & utensils (to help save the oceans from plastic pollution).  Maybe bring a Scandinavian dessert to share. There is a bathroom & grill available, as well as a cooler filled with ice. 
 
We can play lawn games.  Ring toss is here and feel free to bring your own favourite games!  Supervised children are very welcome to attend.
