Welcome to Skjold Lodge, Sons of Norway
You don't have to be a "son" and you don't have to be of Norwegian descent. Women are active members and serve in senior positions at the lodge, district and International level. Our current lodge President is Kathy Secora and our district (District #5) President is Mary Bennett. Anyone with an interest in this beautiful country can become a member. Sons of Norway was organized by Norwegian immigrants in 1895 to protect members and their families from financial hardships. Read More.
Our lodge is 100 years old and while some members come to meetings from 30 miles away, we primarily serve individuals in the Northwest suburbs of Chicago who want to learn more about Norwegian culture and heritage or would simply like to spend some time with others who love this wonderful country. Each month we have a brief business meeting, our program for the day, and food and beverages as we relax and enjoy being with each other.
