The newly released film AMUNDSEN was vied by 200 guests, and the event provided opportunities to mingle, network, and participate in an exciting raffle, the prize: a wool-sweater from<\/span> Amundsen Sports<\/span><\/a> identical to those used by Amundsen in the early 1900\u2019s.\u00a0Our reception included Pemmican samples (dried meat commonly eaten on expeditions) consumed voluntarily by our adventurous guests.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In addition, <\/span>Ann Bancroft<\/span><\/a>, our guest of honor, shared her past experiences and expeditions as a polar explorer, her longtime friendship with Liv Arnesen, and her avid advocation for nature and female<\/span>\u00a0power.<\/span><\/p>\n

A big thank you to Amundsen Sports, Sons of Norway and the Honorary Consulate General in Minneapolis for partnering in a successfully executed night.\u00a0<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n
