L J 1 • • Continued from Page 2B Scandinavia Tho Junction City historic museum will be open special hours during the festival. A beer garden (Ol Haven) also will be a daily attraction. The Scandia Run, a 10-kilometer race, will be run in conjunction with the festival. "Ninety percent of the churches and mer chants in the city contribute to the festival." says Linda Fischer, festival publicity director. "We really have a community event here.” The Scandinavian Festival was founded in 1900 by Junction City physician Gale Fletchall. Interstate 5 had recently opened five miles to the east, taking away much of the thru traffic that had passed through the town on Highway 99. Flet chall recognized a need to revitalize the town’s rapidly-sagging economy, and he thought that there could be no better way than to have a tradi tional , annual community event celebrating Junc tion City’s strong Scandinavian heritage. "We wanted to have something our city could be proud of," says Fletchall. "I think we have accomplished that in our festival.” take a break at ANITA'S CAFE enjoy AUTHENTIC MEXICAN FOOD featuring Thc Best SALSA if| Xown|| try our NEW J Cool, Refreshing Hawaiian Shaved Ice (tropical sno) 810 E. 12th (Just a block from campus) ORDERS TO GO OPEN 8 to 8 Daily Wiswall f?
