About 300 people are expected for the day-long festivities for the whole family, bring your favorite food. This year’s “Theme” is “Go For The Gold” closely related to Danish sports and the World Soccer Cup. Denmark will participate against the best soccer nations in the World, this year in Russia in June/July. The Grundlovs Fest is from 9 am-5 pm, with music, entertainment and games throughout the day. Hot-Dogs, beer, soda, coffee and pastry will be for sale. Raffle prizes, there are at least 50 prizes, also Table Decoration prizes for best looking table, best if it is related it to the “Theme”.
