!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !Fra Presidenten: God Paask - Happy Easter! It is so great that Spring has arrived and with that comes the celebraton of Easter, beautiful flowers, green grass and lots of sunshine. That being said, our wonderful 80th Anniversary celebration is here on the 27th at Captain Bill’s. If you have not made your reservation yet, be sure to contact Brother Ken soon. I attended Henrik Ibsen’s Bowling for fun. It was great to see such a good turnout-- some from Norden Lodge, Garborg Lodge, family and friends, all having a great time. Then the next week, I went to the Zone Bowling, also lots of
fun, and a good turnout. Although I am not a bowler, I do enjoy the Fraternalism. As we did not meet on our regular 3rd Friday, Kris Holvik & I had the opportunity to visit with Garborg Lodge. We were so warnly greeted, the Lapskaus was delicious and we enjoyed President Roy’s meeting. Thank you Garborg Lodge, we had a great time. Six of us went into NYC to see the off Broadway play “The Norwegians”. The actors were great, not sure about the story line though. We did have a great time. By the time you receive this newsletter, the Zone 1 Challenge will have taken place. As I am in charge of the food table and selling hot dogs, I will be able to watch all the crazy fun going on. More on that next time. And now for upcoming events: I would like to send congratulations to Brooklyn Lodge, celebrating their 90th anniversary on the 26th and Hartford Lodge celebrating their 50th on the 27th. Mark your calendar for 3pm Sunday May 4th Zone 1 Memorial service at St. Marks Church, Islip. This is a very special event and I urge you to support it. !
I look forward to seeing you all at our next meeting 7pm, April 11th, (one week earlier) due to Good Friday.
Hero and Salads and a slide show is planned. !! Helen !!

Vice President’s Message !The hot topic right now is our 80th anniversary scheduled for April 27th at Captain Bill’s Restaurant in Bay Shore. I am pleased to report that we have just over 100 people attending; however we could always accommodate a few more so please continue to spread the word. It’s going to be a great afternoon of fun and fraternalism. Good people, good food and Jeanne Widman Andersen to keep us out on the dance floor.
On another note we had a very successful Brother’s Night at your March meeting. The corn beef was plenty and Kris Hausken’s accordion music made a great ending to Brother’s night.
We even made a couple hundred dollars for the lodge. Good job Brother’s !!
Ken

The Third District is the only district in Sons of Norway with a charitable trust Fund. This exemplifies the true meaning of Sons of Norway..... helping our fellow members. This fund was established in 1971, so this is the 43nd year! To date we have helped brothers and sisters who, without this assistance, might not be able to meet their bills, buy adequate food, or purchase medicine they need to live. Never understate the good this fund does! The “circle of friends” is the logo the Third District chose to represent this trust with the Counselors of each lodge being the Charitable Trust Advocates. A district goal for 2014 is
to have lodges donate to the Charitable Trust. A banner will be on display at the 2014 convenMon with the names of Lodge’s who gave during our designated “Charitable Trust month of April”. The goal is to see 52 names added to the 20 names of our Lodges that supported the Third District Charitable Trust in 2013. This April, along with all the lodges, we hope each individual member feels they can make a donaMon. The dollar amount is not important, it is the fact that we as
individuals are joining together for the greater good and true purpose of the order. Individual names will be on the banner as well. Thanks to everyone who supported The Third Distort Charitable Trust in the past. Together, let's make sure this great legacy has a bright future!
We are preparing for the ConvenMon with all the delegates and resoluMons received by the secretary Julia. The business will be tenuous but the ConvenMon commiWee is making sure that the atmosphere at the convenMon is refreshing and gives us all a chance to revive ourselves.
Rolf and I wish you a very blessed Paske. Mange Takk -‐ Alt for denne gangen
Gail Ask & AdverMse, Mentor and Mingle.
