About the event

On November 5, 1966, a group of men and women met in downtown Salt Lake City to form the first Sons of Norway lodge in the Intermountain West. They came from all walks of life--plumbers, business owners, electricians, warehouse workers--but they all shared a deep appreciation for the country that tugged at their hearts as well as the country they had adopted. Among them were the sons and daughters of immigrants who had come to Utah long before. Together, they yearned to preserve the memories and traditions they had been gifted with new friends in their adopted land.

Project 2/60 Part 2 honors their efforts by looking forward to what the next 60 years could bring. We will share our ideas for what the coming years could be and invite you to share your ideas as well. For more information on Project 2/60, go to the Project 2/60 page.
