Dear Elizabeth and Scandinavians of Estes Park,
We are planning to bring a small gruop of musicians, dancers and
crafts people to the Scandinavian Festival next June. The cultural
department in our town government is interested in working together
to develop an annual festival in Estes Park. We are also connected
with communities in other Scandinavian countries, which could help
expand you programs over the years. At this time we are thinking
small and simple, about 10-15 people.
It costs about $ 1000 for each of us to travel to Colorado, but we
only expect 2 or 3 professional musicians to get some expenses paid
Also I have begun to contact others in the U.S. who might use our
group and a'dd.some money to our treasury. At this time I just want
to let you know that we will be coming, then I will write details
later. We are in the middle of some big projects here, but we are
planning a meeting about the trip with some officials as well as
musicians, etc.
Could we get an official letter from the town of Estes Park, of the
Cultural Arts Council somehow letting our town know directly of the
intent/wish to work together to develop this festival? Send or fax to
Gunnar Dagestad, cultural secretary, VOSS KULTURKONTOR, 5701 VOSS
FAX 47 56 51 09 64
Voss has had many festivals over the years. The two annual ones now
are an international jazz festival and a String Festival, where
classical violinists and fiddlers of folkmusic meet. We have also
traveled with many cultural programs, this year to Iceland. I enclose
a brochure .o-our tour to Decorah, Iowa a few years ago. Sorry it took
so long to respond after my return from Colorado. Many things waiting here!
Great to see you a l l again -
1 also enclose a list of some crafts people in the Midwest.

GROWTH POTENTIAL: The Town physically can only hold about 25,000
to provide food, restrooms, parking, etc. Weather in Estes and
the frontrange is always a factor.
COMMENTS: This is an excellent event. Organization and
creativity is handled very well. Weather was very cold and windy
(we lost two floats before leaving the fairgrounds). Received
lots of snow the previous Tuesday and Wednesday, hiways were icey
and news reports were not favorable for mountain driving. The
Denver Post article gave the wrong day (Saturday instead of
Friday). From those attending we received great reviews - best
ever for quality.
Town Expenses were down due to reduction of direct expense of
$2,500 and payroll.

GROWTH POTENTIAL: The sculpture draws a continuous crowd for
viewing during the creation of the art project as well as after.
COMMENTS: The weather needs to be cloudy and cold for this event
to have any success in longevity. This year for creation time
the weather was cold and cloudy. However, Christmas Day was
sunny and fairly warm - the sculpture melted just enough to take
all definition out of the ice. By December 27th only the main
castle structure was recognizable. The artists put in many hours
of work, it was too bad that it lasted only about two days in
good shape.
