Sons of Norway Vegas Viking Lodge to Host Annual Scandinavian Holiday Bazaar Nov. 9 at Community Lutheran VikingChurch
The popular annual Scandinavian Holiday Bazaar sponsored by the Sons of Norway Vegas Viking Lodge will be held Saturday, Nov. 9, 2024 from 9 a.m. to noon in the Fellowship Hall of Community Lutheran Church, located at 3720 E. Tropicana Ave.
The Holiday Bazaar will feature an array of one-of-a-kind crafts, handmade holiday ornaments, vintage Scandinavian merchandise, lefse and warm waffles for sale. In addition, there will be T-shirts, mugs stocking stuffers, and patron’s favorite, homemade Norwegian Christmas cookies and free coffee.
“This is a beloved, casual and enjoyable event where everyone is invited to attend,” said lodge co-chair Kristen McCumby-Hyland. “Join us for some Christmas shopping and enjoy Scandinavian waffles, coffee, and great conversations!”
Patrons are reminded that the bazaar also serves as a good time to get information on the annual Lutefisk dinner at the Elks Lodge in Boulder City in January next year.
Proceeds will benefit the Sons of Norway Vegas Viking Lodge, a non-profit organization formed in May 1992 to promote Norwegian heritage through a variety of special events featuring traditional and contemporary programs. The lodge also operates an annual scholarship program.
