Please mark your calendar for our annual Jāņi/Līgo Celebration which will be on June 25! This year we will celebrate on Edmonton Oilfield Technical Society grounds http://www.edmonton-ots.com/ please check out this location. Do not miss the opportunity to celebrate most Latvian holidays of all – Jani or “Liigo!” when people participate in joyous festivities, just as their ancestors did centuries ago. On the longest day and shortest night of the year, Latvians make garlands, drink beer, eat caraway cheese, sing, dance. Invite your family and friends, everyone is welcome. More details to come.
Information (in both English and Latvian) about Kursa Summer School at the West Coast Latvian Education Center is available in the following links:
