The Swedish Council of St.
Louis, SCSL, was established on December 13th,
1976 to promote the knowledge, preservation, and
understanding of the Swedish heritage. It also
works with the Swedish Council of America, SCA, to
strengthen the ties between America and
Sweden.
In supporting its mission, SCSL
conducts a number of cultural events throughout the year
(see list to the right). In addition, occasional
programs feature Swedish decorations, cooking, crafts,
history and genealogy.
SCSL is also a
resource to provide contacts to Swedish language
instruction, folk dancing and other educational
programs.
Once a year, SCSL unite with its
friends, the Danish Club and the Norwegian Club for the
Scandinavian Picnic.
Members receive a
newsletter, Gult och Blått, announcing council
events, presenting members, soliciting suggestions and
sponsoring other member interests. In addion,
