Every August we have a get together, called a Stemne, in a town or city in the upper Midwest. At our Stemne we gather to celebrate our Norwegian heritage, to share in fellowship and friendship, to learn about our own genealogy and family history and to listen to speakers and entertainers. Every fourth year we travel together to Sogn og Fjordane, Norway, together to keep alive connections between our two countries.

The 2025 Stemne will be  August  14-16 in Albert Lea,  Minnesota
