Come join a traditional Scandinavian style celebration of summer at Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore's Chellberg Farm. This year's Midsummer program will be held on Sunday, June 28 from 12:00 to 4:00 p.m.

Music, dancing and traditional costumes highlight this special event. Between noon and 1:00 p.m., visitors are invited to bring flowers from home to take part in the age-old custom of decorating the Maypole. Immediately following, there will be a musical procession culminating in the raising of the newly decorated pole.

Traditional Swedish tunes provided by local group, Lingonberry Jam, will add an air of festivity.

All are invited to join in on the fun and dance with Dans Norden, a group of traditional Scandinavian folk dancers from Indianapolis. In addition, the children's dance group, Nordikids, will perform in their colorful costumes.

Traditional Scandinavian games and crafts for the children and demonstrations of loom weaving, knife making and wood carving will also be presented.

The Chellberg Farm is located on Mineral Springs Road between Highways U.S. 12 and 20.
