Scandia Camp Mendocino, an annual week-long residential camp founded
in 1980, presents participants the opportunity to learn in depth about
the folk music, dance and cultural traditions of Scandinavia. Over the
years, teachers (many of them the original researchers and
documentarians of their country's folk traditions) have come from
Norway, Sweden and Finland to share their knowledge through daily dance,
music and singing classes and cultural sessions. In the process, a
community has developed of people exploring their cultural roots and of
people with curiosity about and appreciation for the rich folk culture
of Scandinavia. For a week, the Mendocino Woodlands becomes their
common village, a second home.
