Norstead Viking Gathering 2008

« on: November 11, 2008, 12:36:22 PM »

Well, we have now done our second annual event. It was a kind of wet fall and so the road out to the site was muddy. The site itself is way up on a hill above the water so it stayed solid.

We had a couple of TV crews come out but my favorite piece this year was a "Got Game" segment by two of the local sports casters from the Quincy Television station. They take challenges to come out and compete in a sporting event and I challenged them to come out and fight with the vikings! This is the spot they aired on the news:

Lots of fun!
