Johnson, past president and board member of the Synnove-Nordkap Sons of Norway Lodge in St. Paul, will speak at 7 p.m. Thursday at St. Paul Lutheran Church in Stillwater.
The title of his talk is “New Life and New World,” which relates to the 200th anniversary of Norwegians immigrating to America, said Roger Bosmoe, the society’s president.
Johnson retired in 2021 after 36 years of public service with the Washington County Department of Public Health and the Environment. He is an avid woodcarver who specializes in Nordic chip carving.
The event is free and open to the public. Attendees are asked to bring a homemade Scandinavian treat to share, Bosmoe said.
