Field Trip
The Wednesday afternoon field trip will take you to the Kibble Equipment company in Tyler. This John Deere Dealership will offer you the opportunity to get an up-close and personal look at the complex farm machinery used in agriculture today and give you a glimpse into the dynamics of a business that provides parts, service, and sales for today's innovative John Deere equipment. The dealership is just a short 10-minute walk west of the Kronborg Inn.
Singing
An important and essential element in daily living is song. This tradition, led by Asta Twedt and pianists, Laura Stransky and Tim Burch has its foundation in the songs of The World of Song, plus many other sources. Occasionally a chosen song can be sung in Danish and English, combining the languages in a beautiful harmony.
Stories
We love listening to stories, fact or fiction, a wonderful way to learn. At the Folk Meeting we incorporate storytimes where we hear a whimsical tale or a personal life story.
Lectures
At the heart of the Folk Meeting are the lectures. They bring us the "living word," as defined by Grundtvig, while giving us many opportunities to learn, question and discuss.
