1994 is a memorable year for Icelandic people everywhere: it
marks the 50th year of Icelandic independence. In addition, the INL
celebrates its 75th Annual Convention, this year in Selkirk, Manitoba.
The Convention, indeed the INL itself, is crucial to the survival of the
fabric of the Icelandic community in these disparate times. INL has
developed programs to weave our communal strands into something
stronger, more flexible to sustain our cultural identity as Icelanders in
other homelands.
Why become a member of the INL?
‘The old order yieldeth, making way for a new,” as Tennyson said,
signifying the passing on of generations. As each Icelandic generation
succeeds the other, the spark of what it means to be Icelandic is
passed on. Through the INL, you become part of the process, forming
relations with other generations, with other Icelanders in conveying the
uniqueness of what it means to be Icelandic.
Icelandic National League membership is available to organi-
zations and individuals. For more information please contact:
