“Hello Spring, Goodbye Winter”
Drott Lodge and SWEA DC will host a celebration of Valborgsmässoafton (Walpurgis
Night) with bon-fire, spring-inspired singing and music.

All are welcome to this free event! This is the evening when Swedes traditionally go out singing and joining
others to watch bon-fires in their communities to celebrate the coming of spring. Students wear their
white student caps – so please bring your student cap along if you have one.

The celebration starts at 4:00 pm with children’s games to include fun races for young and old. Please bring your own picnic food and BYOB, and if you so wish, marshmallows and fixings for s’mores over the fire. Bring folding chairs/beach chairs or blankets since no seating will be provided.
