Alright all you local Scandinavians: This weekend is the 106th (you read that right) Annual Sons of Norway and Leif Erickson Bazaar, which will have all the Nordic food and goods you could possibly dream of. It'll also give you a chance to connect with some of your fellow Scaninavians and learn about Sons of Norway and the Leif Erickson Lodge.
The event encompasses two days -- Saturday, Oct. 20, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.; and Sunday, Oct. 21, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.
From the organizers:
