Help celebrate 100 years all year long

I want to thank Normanna Lodge in Everett for a fun, interesting event I attended that kicked off their year-long celebration to their 100th year anniversary, which is September 2011.

Lee and Barb Brevik, with Bev Conway, put together a wonderful presentation and Larry Egge, “Lars,” narrated the 100-year history with many timely jokes included. It went from 100 years ago up into the future of Normanna. It looks like their year-long celebration will have many fun events with lots of good food, education, dances and lots of fun.

Good luck, Normanna, with your celebration.
