Trønder Tour to Norway in June 2010 -
With the help of one of our Norwegian members, we are planning a
customized trip to Trøndelag and parts of Norway many have not seen.
This trip, which begins June 16, 2010 would travel north of Trondheim with
a combination of mountains, valleys, coastal areas and fjords, and
hopefully a chance to see the Midnight Sun. We end the bus tour portion of
our trip in Trondheim for research at the archives, sightseeing, and
visits to relatives in the area. As in 2005, we hope to be able to
help you make contact with relatives connected to the farm or place of
your Trønder heritage. Two return dates have been established: June 28 or
July 1. Reservations for
the trip are currently being accepted.
If you have an
interest in this trip, please send an e-mail to president @ tronderlag.org
including your: Name, Address, City, State, Zip / Telephone number /
e-mail address / and Number of people who would travel. A tour brochure
and registration information is available from president Robert
Fossum and on this web site. Members with email should already have received a copy via email.

It is vital in
all cultural life to maintain a link between the present and the
past. If there is anything that history makes clear it is this, that
when a people becomes interested in its past life, seeks to acquire
knowledge in order to better understand itself, it always
experiences an awakening in life. - Ole Edvart Rølvaag
