Celebrate America’s 250 Birthday this July, Minnesota style! On July 8th, the public is invited to a community wide potluck in Viking Ship park to commorate 250 years of American history and culture. Everyone is encouraged to bring food, whether its hotdish, baklava, samosa, or anything that celebrates this place we all call home!
