We are privileged to have “Sunna Pam Furstenau,” as our guest speaker. Sunna comes from Fargo, North Dakota and is renowned for her knowledge of Icelandic settlers in North America. She will give a visual presentation that will include reasons that settlers left Iceland and North Dakota and, as well, she will talk about the cultural values they brought with them. Sunna will visit Edmonton and Markerville as part of her visit to Alberta before arriving in Calgary.  DON’T MISS OUT ON THIS OPPORTUNITY TO MEET  SUNNA!  I heard her speak at the Seattle convention and she got a standing ovation!
