A big thank you to "Scandinavian Club of Manawatu Inc", and the "Norsewood Promotions Group" for organising such a successful Scandinavian Festival last weekend.There were a mix of Scandinavian (and NZ) flags everywhere.
There were Folk dancers from Denmark and Musicians from Norway as well as local entertainment.
The Sweden-New Zealand Association contributed with a taste of Sweden by bringing the maypole and the game of kubb. A big thank you to Göran Persson and Stefan Hålam for showing how to play this fun game and inviting interested visitors to play with them.
Unfortunately I had to miss out on the evening events but I'm sure Joanna and/or Tinni will give us all an update in the next newsletter... for some photos please visit Peter McDermott's photos on http://www.bestill.co.nz/Events/festival/festival.htm
