Celebrate Summer Solstice Estonian Style

May 20th, 2009
Come celebrate the Summer Solstice Estonian style, on Sunday, June 28th, 11 AM, Estonian Cultural Garden, 1170 MLK Jr Blvd, immediately south of Ansel Road exit, west side of MLK Jr. Blvd.

The event marks the 42nd VOIDUPUHA-JAANIPAEV celebration (combination of summer solstice and freedom celebrations). No leaping over bonfires as in Estonia, but plenty of traditional singing and maybe even dancing. A great time for all, and the travel expense to MLK from your home is sure to fit everyone’s budget. Be a part of it all.

For details and information contact the Puussaars at 440-946-6549.
