To enlighten others about Swedish culture and traditions through events
such as Crawfish Party, Valborgsmässoafton, Midsommar,
Smörgåsbord, Christmas Traditions, and
Lucia.
To educate in the Swedish language, folk dance, folk music, folk dress,
and Swedish singing choir.
To arrange special travel, such as Lucia's annual trip to Barkeryd,
