Deck the Tables
The first annual “Deck the Tables” – Celebrate the Season with Vesterheim event took place on November 12, 2011 at Nob Hill Supper Club in Decorah. The event was an overwhelming success. Over 100 people from our community attended the Open House during the day and more than 230 guests joined us for dinner that evening. Vesterheim would like to thank all those who made this a successful community event, including all who attended and the "Deck the Tables" Committee!
