Welcome to Skjold Lodge, Sons of Norway

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 after our program.

You don't have to be a "son" and you don't have to be of Norwegian descent. Women are active members, serve on boards, and have been Presidents of lodges. Sons of Norway was organized by Norwegian immigrants in 1895 to protect members and their families from financial hardships. Read More.
