Circle of Friends
Vennekretsen means The Circle of Friends - a concept very much practiced by one of the newest Lodges of the Sons of Norway, established in 2008. Our website was established to provide information about our many activities and events scheduled throughout the year and provide information that will allow you to explore your Norwegian heritage.

Our Mission - To unite the Norwegian community to share ideas and culture in order to strengthen family and social bonds and celebrate our Scandinavian heritage.
Our Vision - To make the Vennekretsen - Atlanta lodge fun, informative, supportive and interesting, helping it grow into a vibrant group that creates visibility and awareness of the Scandinavian culture in our local community.
Consider hosting an International Exchange Student from Norway. This is an excellent way to experience Norwegian culture first hand and help a Norwegian student experience life in America for a school year.
Our Circle of Friends at Vennekretsen Lodge of Atlanta is one of best benefits of membership because it is the collaboration of our fiends and family that makes all of this possible.
Vennekretsen translated to English is "The Circle of Friends" and symbolizes the relationship of the lodge to "familien og vennekretsen" (family and friends).
