Our first summer outing of the year will be on May 29 to take a beautiful, but not to long journey through the coulee's to visit Norskedalen. Nestled in the rolling hills of southwest Wisconsin, Norskedalen—meaning "Norwegian Valley"—is a breathtaking nature and heritage center that offers a perfect blend of history, culture, and outdoor beauty. Spring is an especially magical time to visit, as the valley awakens with vibrant wildflowers, lush greenery, and the soothing sounds of bubbling streams. We will be taking a short guided tour, admiring the historic Norwegian homestead, and soaking in the peaceful atmosphere, Norskedalen provides a refreshing escape into nature. Because will have our own guide, the interiors of the homes and barn will be included. After our tour, the visit wouldn’t be complete without stopping by the museum and gift shop. The museum showcases fascinating exhibits that highlight the rich Norwegian-American heritage of the region, including restored pioneer log buildings and artifacts that tell the story of early settlers. Meanwhile, the gift shop is a hidden gem, offering unique, locally crafted items that make for perfect souvenirs or gifts. This marvelous adventure will take place on Thursday, May 29. We will leave the church at 1:30pm. Not to be missed, email Brian Narveson if you would like to join the group for this outing. After Norskedalen we will have supper at a local restaurant before returning to church. Cost of the tour is $10 and supper is on your own. Mary will collect the money at church before we leave.
