New Member Brunch 

Saturday, April 26, 10 am to 12 noon

Norway House

3846 Meredith Dr., Fairfax, VA directions

Each spring we host a brunch in honor or our newest members. We want to get acquainted and thank them for joining. Members who have joined since the 2024 Brunch have already received their invitations; now we are opening the brunch to all members of the lodge. Since this is not potluck, please help us plan ahead by RSVPing to Vice President Linda Hestvik at VP@NorwayDC.org.

Update.  We have reached to limit for the brunch.  Sorry but no more places are available

Welcome to our Website

Are you interested in Norway Literature, History, Folklore, Genealogy, Food, or Language? Do you want to connect to your roots, study the Viking age or the Norwegian Resistance in WWII, or discuss the latest in Norwegian culture?
The Sons of Norway members in the nation's capital, representing a diversity of background and nationality, share an interest in Norwegian and Scandinavian Culture. We trust that all ages will find something of interest -- in our web site and in our lodge. We have almost 400 members. Most are from the local area of DC, Maryland, and Virginia, but we also have members from another 16 states as well as Norway, Canada, and Great Britain.

For information on membership, contact Jeff Jorgenson  at Jas_jorgenson@yahoo.com. 

To join the Washington Lodge click the "Join Our Lodge" button under the Picture at the top of this page. 

Hint: When you push a brown button, it will open a new tab on your screen. However, if you close the tab, it will return you to the previous screen.

Cultural Skills

This fall the lodge is running a Cooking Pin Challenge.  Photograph the Norwegian treats and main dishes you cook this fall, and let’s see how many lodge members can earn a first, second, or third cultural skills pin before the end of the year!  Email culturalskills@norwaydc.org to find out more about the Cultural Skills program.
