Membership at Sons of Norway
We invite you to be a part of our lodge.
Membership in the Sons of Norway provides you with an opportunity to appreciate the heritage and culture of Norway.
First-Class Special Events
At Fjellheim, we are widely known for our first-class special events including Frokost (a buffet breakfast with over 40 authentic Norwegian dishes to choose from), Lutefisk and Meatball Dinner serving over 300, Viking Fair Bazaar and Brunch, Scandinavian Winter Tea with each table and the lodge decorated for the occasion, and a Family Christmas Party with great food and entertainment. We have a large lodge and a kitchen capable of serving over 200 per seating.
Opportunities for Good Times
At Fjellheim, we take every opportunity to have to a good time. Our 45th Anniversary Party was a gala event with a sit-down dinner.
We meet about 10 times a year to make lefse, 250 pieces each time. We play Norwegian Bingo. We go to the Cripple Creek Melodrama or perhaps the local minor league baseball game as a group in August.
We study Norsk history and have a booth at the Scandinavian Midsummer Festival in Estes Park. In short, we do a lot of things Norwegian. We would love to have you join us.
Activites and Events
Our activities each month include a general meeting with an engaging cultural program, a large, tasty lunch and time for visiting and sharing stories.
We also have a monthly card social, a Norwegian language class, a Norwegian cooking club, rosemaling classes, luncheons and dine-outs.
For the kids, our members participate in Barneløpet (a cross-country ski race), Syttende Mai (Norway’s main national holiday), a summer picnic, and a family Christmas party.
