Looks like Icelandic Fun at the 2022 Summer Picnic

Posted on August 2, 2022August 18, 2022 by IcelandDC

The Icelandic Association is happy to announce we will hold a summer picnic at Lake Accotink Park in Fairfax VA on Sunday August 21 from 1-4PM.

We will have Icelandic hot dogs and candy on hand, and we also encourage guests to bring a side-dish to share.

Drinks

We were also able to secure a permit for alcoholic beverages, so please feel free to BYOB (bring your own beverages).

Great Activities

There’s lots of fun things to do at Lake Accotink, including boat rentals and minigolf.  Fun Things to Do at Lake Accotink Park in Springfield VA (funinfairfaxva.com).

Special Guests

And we are very much looking forward to having a special guest, Rachel Seratte of Avian Encounters, who will present her education program on birds of prey, and will bring with her several of her birds.  Should be fun!

How to Get There

Mission

Our mission is to promote and celebrate our Icelandic traditions and heritage. We do this mainly through our much anticipated annual events (June 17th Independence Day Picnic, Þorrablót, Jólabazaar, Children’s Christmas Party, and Annual Meeting) but are open to other ideas.

History

The Icelandic Association of Washington, DC held its first meeting on October 9,1969. We welcome all: native Icelanders, American/Icelanders, and those who just love all things Icelandic!
