Year Round Activities!

Hej allesammen!

Since the end of camp, there have been a few meet-ups between Skovsøen villagers. These include a girls meet-up before camp, a trip to the Mall of America in July, Minnesota State Fair in August, a “Dansk-over” at the Danish American Center in Minneapolis, Universal Studios with H.C. Andersen Fairy Tale, and a trip to Navy Pier in Chicago.  What Danish events have you been up to?  Send your pictures to our new Skovsøen blogger, Brian “Peter” Mitchell at CLVDanish@gmail.com.

Below is a photo collection of pictures from these events!

Credit Letter

Greetings from Skovsøen!

We’re all off to a great start at Skovsøen 2011!  The videregående/credit villagers moved into their hytter/cabins and, by the way they get along, it seems as if they never left!  All are returning villagers, although most are new to the credit program.  Naajanguaq, our credit teacher this first week, has them working on grammar, as well as talking up a storm.  And there’s no lack of dancing, badminton, biking, saunas, and even a Danish language version of the game, Family Feud.  The videregående are writing in their dagbøger/journals every day, so skriftligdansk/written Danish is coming along, as well.  Next week, our second credit teacher will arrive from Denmark.

Our blog is now up and running, so check it out at http://skovsoen.villagepages.org/.  You are also welcome to email your villager at https://concordialanguagevillages.wufoo.com/forms/send-your-skovsoen-villager-a-message/.  If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Med venlighilsen,

Liz “Lis” Klages

Dean, Skovsøen
