The view today from the future site of Astoria Nordic Heritage Park is gorgeous. Have we told you that this view is protected now by new zoning regulations passed by the Astoria City Council? We’re thrilled!
2020 Crown Bearer Max and his sister had an active day with their grandma practicing social distancing on the Cathedral Tree Trail below the Astoria Colulmn. We hope you all are staying healthy and getting a chance to enjoy the outdoors too. It's the Nordic way!
Mark your calendars for Midsummer in Astoria, Oregon - June 19 - 21.
Hoping all the restrictions for the virus are over by then! Always love coming. It's our first festival of the year and always kicks off our summer festival season. My gr-gr grandparents were from Norway. 🇳🇴
How do I sign up for the parade of costumes?
