Call for the Norrland week
The group active since 2009 - in five years - has worked with the Norrlandsveckan in July before the Visfesti-valen on Holmön and also been the board of the association has decresed in size over the past years. We, who remains, feel that we are to few to runs this ecent the coming summer 2014. A continued Norrlandsvecka with others in the lead do we see as the best alternative. Another alternative is to form a working group under HUF with the aim to arrange Norrlandsveckan in the future. We who are part of the board and the planning group will be active in Norrlandsveckan also in the future, but we need an change and reenforcement in the management. Please contact us if you have ideas or wish to contribute to a continuation of Norrlandsveckan. We must come to a decision soonvi måste ta ett beslut om fortsättningen snarast.
