Oq_,,

to everyone at Finn Grand Fest 2005!
The Lutheran School of
Theology at Chicago is excited
to join in celebrating our
rich heritage.
Mary Suomala Folkerds
and Stephanie Lord, (pictured
here with President James
Kenneth Echols) are the
1
recipients of LSTC's Finnish
Student Scholarships. They
are among the more than 350
women and men who attend LSTC each year to prepare for ministries of
preaching, teaching and service. LSTC's students are part of a tradition of
scholarship begun in Turku in 1640 and continuing in Helsinki in 1828, at
Suomi Theological Seminary in Hancock, Michigan in 1904 and finally at
LSTC in 1962.
LSTC's founding in 1962 by Suomi and three other predecessor seminaries
and its location adjacent to a world class university is due, in large part, to
the Lutheran and Finnish educational ideal of theological education in the
context of the university.

*
The LSTC community congratulates Pauline Kiltinen,
President of Finn Grand Fest 2005 and member of the
Lutheran School of Theology at Chicago Board of Directors,
on a "grand" fest!

FINNGRANDFEST 2005 HONORARY CO-CHAIR

I am very proud to have been asked to serve as a Honorary Co-Chair for Finn Grand
Fest 2005. And I am delighted to serve in this capacity with Hans Myrskog, the
Canadian Co-chair, who happens to be a very good friend. Olemme ylpea olevan
Suomalaisia! Aivan!
This is the second such Finn Grand Fests to take place, the first being in Toronto 5
years ago! And now, again, what a wonderful opportunity to share Our Finnishness
with so many others .... from Finland, from Canada, and from the U.S.A! I know that
you who are reading the contents of this souvenir book will really enjoy this Finn
Grand Fest 2005 .... and have great memories of what will have taken place in
Marquette Michigan from August 10 to 14 of the year 2005!
Onnea olkoon! All the best to each and everyone!
Carl V Pellonpaa

PS: Remember that Finland Calling goes LIVE each day from the festival! That's a
first for any festival, eiko?

FINNISH CANADIAN CULTURAL FEDERATION

It is with great pleasure that I convey my warmest greetings to the Finn Grand Fest
2005. We are proud to be part of this second joint festival between our two countries.
We celebrated in Toronto, Canada in 2000 and it was a great success.
Working together to nourish and encourage the growth of Finnish culture, unity,
and the continuation of cultural traditions that we have inherited from our fathers and
mothers--that is why these festivals must continue.
Whether you're drinking coffee and eating pancakes, or watching a generation of
children singing and dancing to traditional folk music, or cheering on participants of
the wife carrying contest or the boot toss, or dancing the lively Finnish polka, relish in
the fact that Finnish culture continues to thrive.
Enjoy the Festival!

Tervetuloa, Welcome!
Welcome to Finn Grand Fest 2005. Northern Michigan University is honored to serve
again, as it did in 1996, as the host for many of the FinnFest activities. Tervetuloa,
Welcome!
The NMU faculty, staff and students hope you enjoy your time on our campus.
The theme of2005 Finn Grand Fest is "Heritage powers the future." The FinnFest
activities don't just hearken back to the traditions of older Finnish Americans, but
provide an opportunity for the younger generations to continue to re-discover what is
unique and special about their ancestry. Heritage is both a reflection of the past and a
driving force for the future.
At NMU, our heritage is teaching, a calling that is devoted to passing on knowledge ftom
one generation to the next and empowering people. In that way, NMU lives the spirit of
this year's Finn Grand Fest every day. We also take great pride in having been the
university of choice for thousands of Finnish Americans over our 105-year history.
The Northern Michigan University community looks forward to exploring and learning
about the Finnish American heritage with you.
Sincerely,

THE CITY OF MARQUETTE

The City and the residents of Marquette Michigan welcome's Finn Grand Fest 2005. It is
indeed and honor and pleasure to be asked to be the Host City once again, to such an
outstanding international event. The Finnish community has a long standing history in our
city, reflected in such activities as the Sister City relations with Kajaani, Finland, and the
"Finland Calling" program on a local TV station. I personally visited Kajaani last year with
our Sister Cities delegation, and the common bonds exchanged during this event will
strengthen our local Finnish heritage for years to come. Please take the opportunity to visit the
many attractions and events provided by the Finn Grand Fest Committee and enjoy your stay
here in Marquette, Michigan!

OFFICIAL GREETINGS

Ottawa, 27 June 2005

As Finns who have lived both in Canada and the United States it is a real pleasure for my wife
Raija and myself to participate for the first time in the Firm Grand Fest, this time in the beautiful
city of Marquette, Michigan, in the heart of Finnish North America. The quinquennial Firm
Grand Fest is indeed a grand manifestation of Finnish, Finnish-American and Firmish-Canadian
culture and heritage, bringing together thousands of people from both sides of the 49th parallel as
well as distinguished visitors from Finland.

On behalf of my wife and myself I extend warm greetings to the organizers and all the
participants in Firm Grand Fest 2005 and wish everyone a grand time in Marquette.

UPPER PENINSULA CHAPTER - LEAGUE OF FINNISH-AMERICAN SOCIETIES
On behalf of our membership and friends I extend our heartfelt greetings and warmest
welcome to you and everyone attending FinnGrandFest 2005 on the beautiful campus of
Northern Michigan University and at venues throughout the delightful City of Marquette.
Having hosted FinnFest USA '96, I know you will enjoy our hospitality and unique
opportunities to enrich yourself with the Finnish culture in America. Whether you are
traveling from Canada, Finland, other states or countries, we wish your summer journey to us
is safe and that you smile a lot and have fun with us! We and our good neighbors from Canada
are proud to participate and help organize this fine festival for all.

Richard Salo

2429 Girard Avenue S., Mlnneapolls, MN 55405, USA

Dear FinnOrandFest attendees,
On behalf of the FinnFest USA board and member organi:zations, let me greet you and welcome
you to the 22nd PinnFest USA festival. This year. for the second time, F"mnPest USA has joined
hands with Canada and their annual Finnish Grand Festival to create a North American celebration
of Finnish culture., a Finn Grand Fest. We are pleased to return the FinnFest USA to Marquette
and to build on the success of the 1996 festival held here.
We are ple3Sed lhat we create a joint event with Canada. Finni.sh North American hi.stocy is as
much the story of Finns and Finni.sh culture interacting with Canada as it is the story of Finns and
Finnish culture interacting with the USA. We will now share five days together in which we can
build on lhat hi.stocy and celebrate Finland and Finni.sh culture in North America.
The Upper Peninsula is a natural place for a PinnFest USA. So many of us Finnish Americans
come from the U.P. So many have come to know Finnish culture through experiences in the U.P.
Yet we do not have to be Finns or Finnish Americans or Finnish Cmadians at this festival. All we
need is a curiosity in learning and an interest in participating. Marquette is a welcoming place for
this to happen. lt is a great joy to return to Marquette.
FinnFest USA moves each summer to another Finnish American site. Next year, we wiU gather
on the lower Columbia River, in Nase.lie.. WA and Astoria, OR. This too i.s a site rich with Finnish
American hi.stocy and a rich Finnish American cultural life. We hope you will join us there next
summer to find out how F"mnish Culture has blossomed in the great Northwest.
Tervetuloo!
Marianne Wargelin, President
FinnFest USA Board

EDITOR'S NOTES
Hello and Welcome!

This booklet is your main source for Finn Grand Fest 2005 schedule and event information. Some
event schedules were not completed at press time, therefore you'll find final schedules, big maps
of the event venues and help with your questions at the Registration Desk. A few event additions
can be found on page 121.
We've included a series of"Highlights" which go behind the scenes of Finn Grand Fest 2005.
"In The Kitsi" is story of the women who put the FGF 05 cookbook together, while Blue and
White Chair organizer Mary Wright talks about the germination and continuation of that project in
"Istu!" For fun diversion, take a crack at the FGF 05 Crossword Puzzle, or swing by the live
broadcast of Suomi Kutsuu (Finland Calling) in the Tori. Hosted by Carl Pelonpaa for 43 years,
many ofus Yoopers have grown up with the program.
A couple notes about language: You'll notice that Sarni is spelled different ways in the
booklet. We left it to the presenters to spell it the way they spell it. And, in case you're wondering,
N.M.U. stands for Northern Michigan University and U.P. stands for Michigan's beautiful Upper
Peninsula. Accordingly, people who live here (or who are from here) are called Yoopers.
Since 1996, the Marquette community has been looking forward to FinnFest's return. When I
was collecting ads last spring, several business owners told me the busiest they have ever been
was during FinnFest USA '96 - so they are sure to be ready for FGF 2005!
Many thanks to everyone who provided material for and assistance with the program booklet,
particularly the Committee Chairs, Judy Place, Dawn Wilder, and Pauline and John Kiltinen.

Words © by John Kiltinen
written February. 2004

It was our pleasure to underwrite the commissioning of the double bass concerto by Jukka
Linkola which is having its world premiere performance here at Finn Grand Fest 2005. We
thank all who have had a part in malcing the Gala Festival Concert and this premiere possible.
We also thank the hundreds of people who have had a hand in malcing the whole festival a
reality. As an expression of our thanks, we offer this song that gives voice to the love of the
heritage that we share. It also expresses our hope that our Finnish heritage will continue for
generations to come, and that it will help to increase our sense of unity for all of humanity.

Pauline and John Kiltinen

TRANSPORTATION

Getting around with shuttle buses or golf carts
One of the things your registration fee is paying for is a super system for
getting around. Your registration name badge serves as your free boarding
pass for either of these options: golf cart or shuttle bus.
To get around on the NMU campus, just hail down a golf cart and tell the
driver where you want to go. If you don't see a golf cart, look for a yellowshirted volunteer with a walky-talky and tell him or her that you need one and
the volunteer will be able to call for one to come and get you.
For travel to off-campus venues and for shuttling between Marquette
lodging places and the campus, you have the option of riding the Marq Tran
shuttle bus. In addition to maintaining its regular routes, Marq Tran will be
running loops to off-campus venues and to the lodging places. Pick up a bus
schedule sheet at the registration area for route and time details.

�EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM GUIDE

35

By John L. Saari
The Finn Grand Fest 2005 educational program offers over 150 distinct lectures, panels,
workshops, Finn Hall performances, book discussions, and other events. They are spread out
over four days, Thursday to Sunday, with about 50 sessions each on Thursday, Friday, and
Saturday and 20 on Sunday. They begin on the hour,from 9:00A.M to 1:00 P.M, and last about
45 minutes each. The Thursday-Friday-Saturday sessions are all in Jamrich Hall; the first floor
has large amphitheater-like lecture rooms in a circle (numbered 101-105), while the secondfloor
has smaller, more conventional classrooms. The Sunday program will be on the second floor of
the University Center (the first floor is the registration center). The sessions are numbered 1
through 169; the references in the text below refer to those numbers in the program schedule. No
one can see everything, so we suggest that family and friends divide up, attend different events,
and then get together later over coffee to visit and share impressions. That way you can double or
triple your participation in the educational program. Enjoy the richness!
The guide to the FinnFest USA '96 program of lectures, workshops, and exhibits spoke
about Finn Fest as a third generation idea, born in 1983 and now in its 22nd annual version.
In 2000 and again this year, the FinnFest USA tradition has been enriched by interacting with the
older Canadian Grand Festival tradition, creating the Finn Grand Fest idea. The four-day event has
been remarkably stable in form, with opening and closing ceremonies, a parade, a Tori
(marketplace), athletic events, craft and food demonstrations, plays and concerts, art exhibits and a
banquet. The most distinctive aspect of the USA version has been an educational program for
children and adults. Among US ethnic festivals in general, where the emphasis tends to be on
music, crafts, games, and foods, this educational push is unusual. It is like injecting an academic
conference into a traditional ethnic event, where the scholarly and the folk face each other, for
mutual enlightenment and amusement.

Is the Finn Fest inspiring third generation nostalgia to learn more
about a vanishing Finnish-American past? Are we victims of the AOF
Syndrome: Adult Onset Finnishness as some have humorously
described it? (#46) While there is certainly some nostalgia present, the
premise of the educational program is that it is useful to think seriously
about the past, about the connection with Finland in earlier times and
today, about how the meaning of ethnicity inevitably changes over
time through intermarriage in mobile, multiethnic, democratic
societies. Such reflection helps us know who we are in time and what
we are becoming. It also helps us consciously decide what from this
rich pool of past behaviors, images, and skills we might try to integrate
more fully into our lives, or excise from our lives.
Third generation ethnicity - and one might add 4th, 5th, and later generation ethnicity - is about
choices. The language is usually lost. Do you want to begin to learn it (#36,#129), at least learn
enough "survival Finnish" to orient yourself on a tour of Finland (#66, #118)? Do you want to
become familiar with classic and contemporary Finnish literature (seven are offered in our Book
Discussion section)? Do you want to know what some Finnish North Americans are writing about
(fifteen authors will be at Finn Grand Fest to share their work in Book Discussions)? Do you want
to see some contemporary feature films from Finland? Is Salolampi summer language camp
something for your kids or grandkids? (#111, #148) Do you want to learn about playing, or
perhaps making, a kantele? (#68) Do you want to learn about immigrant self-care health practices
(#41) or how to make a sauna cleansing with plants (#120)?

EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM GUIDE

Let us highlight some of the special learning opportunities at Finn Grand Fest 2005:
Genealogy. The genealogy offerings at Finn Grand Fest are more specialized than in the past.
Longer narrative studies have grown out ofresearching an immigrant father's experience in WWI
(#116) or in the occupation of an immigrant tailor (#127). In Finland itself certain emigrant
regions will be highlighted (#56). The collective work of a Canadian historical society will be
explored (#97). A staff person from the Institute of Migration (Turku) will assist researchers in
using their extensive passport and passenger records, for free, in a computer room set aside for this
purpose.
Memorials. Two sessions are dedicated to
remembering the lives and works of Mayme
Sevander (#71), Karelian survivor and author,
and Ernie Ronn (#88), iron miner and union
leader.
Local History. Studies of specific communities
will be part of Finn Grand Fest 2005. Featured in
the U.P. will be Covington (#137), Eben
Junction (#140), the Black River district near
Republic (#18), and Drummond Island (#151).
The Eben study is a continuation of two earlier
studies of land use and community done in 1933
and 1963, making Eben one of the best-studied
Finnish rural hamlets. Canadian prairie
communities are the focus of a slide lecture
(#101). Where and why Finnish immigrants
settled down in certain parts of North America
will also be discussed (#24, #6).
Karelian Fever. Interest in the stories of the
6,000 plus Finnish North Americans who
emigrated to Soviet Karelia in the 1930s
continues to inspire new books and films. A
recent award-winning film by the Canadian Film
Board called Letters from Karelia will be shown
twice with the Director, Researcher, and Music
Composer all present for a discussion (#2, #12,
#52, #62). A 2003 conference in Thunder
Bay, Ontario, created a book whose editor will
be present for a Book Discussion (#35).
Organizational stories. Finnish North
Americans created myriad organizations to
further their collective desires, from co-ops to
temperance halls, from churches to socialist
groups, from newspapers to historical societies.
Several specific histories will be addressed: The
Knights and Ladies of Kaleva (#58), The
newspaper Raivaaja (1905-2005) (#63), the

temperance society Sovinto (#38), and the
Finlandia Foundation (1953-2003)(#29).
Shamanic explorations. The Kalevala contains
a pre-Christian world view; one lecture will
explore this literary work as a "shamanic epic."
(#73). Others will delve into the rich lore of
Finnish oral literature to bring forth new insights
and creations for our time (#50, #125, #143). A
further literary study will chart the changes when
the Kalevala crossed the Atlantic to become
embodied in the American epic poem Hiawatha,
based on the Lake Superior region (#83).
Sister city connections. Kajaani, Finland is
Marquette's sister city. A delegation from
Kajaani will be coming to Finn Grand Fest 2005,
participating in a lecture on the sister-city
connection (#78), performing two Finnish fairy
tales in a children's theater production (#55, #65,
#106, #115), and presenting several musical
performances in the Gospel Tabernacle and St.
Mark's Church (off-campus).
Finn Hall events. Finn Hall revivals have been a
constant feature of Finnish-North American
festivals. All of them mix song and performance
with learning and words. Six special Finn Hall
events are part of the educational program:
traditional folk songs and instruments from
Karelia by the music group Sattuma (#45), a
comedy and music routine from Michigan's
Copper Country (#92), a program on immigrant
songs sung in Finnish and English (#104), a
women's choir called "Crones of the North"
(#113A), a performance ofFinnish-Ojibwe
stories and music (#122), and "Finnish ethnicity
in words, pictures, and song" (#142). Similar in
spirit is the lecture and demonstration called
"Tango Passion and the Finnish Soul" (#75).
Films. Most of the films will be shown in DVD
format in Jamrich Hall 216. On Thursday
contemporary feature films from Finland will be
shown; on Friday, Finnish films with historical
topics, such as WWII, and Saturday, FinnishNorth American films. A new PBS Documentary
on the Winter War called "Fire and Ice" will be
previewed in Jamrich Hall l 02 on Thursday

EDUCATIONAL PROGRAM GUIDE

(#42). During the evening dances in the University Center, films will also be shown nearby in
Pioneer Rooms A and B, for those desiring a restful break in a dark place. On Sunday two video
films on the Puotinen Farm near Amasa, MI, produced by a fourth generation filmmaking couple,
will be shown (#162, #167). A separate listing of all the films will be available at the Registration
Table.
Architecture. The story of the renowned Finnish immigrant Saarinen family is a Michigan and
American story, embodied in the history of the Cranbrook Academy in Bloomfield Hills, MI. The
director of the archive there will be attending Finn Grand Fest 20005 to give two talks, one about
Saarinen artistry visible in the Academy's buildings and grounds (#103), and one about the
Saarinen women, Loja and Pipsan (#155). Two well-known architects of Finnish descent will also
present an illustrated slide lecture on their own works (#113).
Course for credit. Paul Lubotina, a historian at Northern Michigan University, will also be
offering a course in Finnish and Finnish-American studies around the educational program at Finn
Grand Fest 2005. For two university credits, students will be expected to attend about ten hours of
lectures before and after Finn Grand Fest, as well as 12 lectures during the festival, in addition to
writing a paper. Lubotina will be giving two talks during the festival, one on Finnish-American
diplomacy in WWII (#30) and a second on racism and the Ku Klux Klan in Nordic communities
in the Lake Superior region (#150).

Behind almost every educational offering is a question: Do you want to learn about this to enrich
your life, to go more deeply into the Finnish-North American connection? Heritage alone does not
power the future, but it can be a potent force in opening up possibilities.

Tervetuloa. Welcome to our Touch of Finland. Over 4000 sq. feet of space makes Touch
of Finland the largest, most renowned Scandinavian gift store in the Midwest. Listen to
Finnish music while you discover quality Finnish products and the largest selection of

New to FinnFest USA, the Finnish and
Finnish North American Interactive Reading
Program promises to be a big hit with those
wishing to know more about Finnish
literature.
The Cultural Program Committee,
co-chaired by Jon Saari and Sylvia
Kinnunen, asked Ellie Schellhase,
former librarian at Westwood High
School in Ishpeming, to help generate
a list of approximately 25 books to be
discussed at Finn Grand Fest 2005.
The committee contacted authors, translators
and specialists in Finnish literature and asked
them to be speakers at this year's Finn Grand
Fest. These presenters will speak for
approximately 10-15 minutes and then open up
the floor for questions and discussions of the
books they have described.
Over the past year, Ellie has traveled the
Marquette County area giving book talks to
book clubs and groups. The reception was very
enthusiastic.
So if you are interested in literature, and
literature about our culture, check out a Book
Discussion, or a book!

Cookbook Editors, L-R First Row: Lily Korpi and Pati Salmi;
Second Row: Ruth Hill, Marjorie Carlson and Joyce Dupras

How "The Joy of Finnish-American Cooking:
Preserving Our Heritage" Came to Be
When suggestions for programs and projects were solicited at one of the early Finn Grand
Fest 2005 planning sessions, Joyce Dupras turned to Ruth Hill and said, "Do you think we
could do a cookbook?" And off they went.
Requests for recipes were relayed to friends and families, published in the Mining Journal an,
Finnish-American/Canadian newspapers, and were aired on TV 6 and local radio. The response
was overwhelming. People phoned, e-mailed and mailed their favorite recipes. These were often
accompanied by comments on how some dishes were traditional in their families for special meal1
or events. We Finns love our food!
Two committee members, Pati Salmi and Lily Korpi, were added to the group and the
Committee of Four went into action. Joyce typed the recipes, Marjorie Carlson provided cover
artwork, and Dave and Pat Holli underwrote the project. Printing was begun at Haapanen/Burkett
Inc. and Joyce kept on typing and typing and typing!
Early sales of the book were conducted in bookstores, banks and shops as well as by
individual committee members. The response far exceeded expectations with more than 2000
copies sold to date. The committee highly recommends two famous Finnish recipes pannukakku and pulla - the best of the best. Copies of the book are available at the Tori for $12

"What's with these chairs?" People were overheard
asking this question as they explored the streets of
Marquette, NMU and Mattson Lower Harbor Park
during FinnFest USA'96. The chairs appeared, as ifby
magic, painted in official Finnish blue and white by
people who came to chair painting bees in Marquette
and many UP communities with a Finnish population.
Mary Wright, who organized the chair project for the
1996 and 2005 Finn Fests says, "The idea for the chairs
came to me in a dream, a solution to the question I posed
to myself as a member of the 1996 Decorating
Committee: People from far and wide are coming to
Marquette. What can we do to make them welcome and
make an enduring impression that will last long after the
festival concludes?"
Mary told the committee about her idea at a meeting
in the choir loft at St. Mark's Church. One committee
member said she thought it was crazy, but another
committee member, Millie Johnson said,
"That's a good idea," and offered to paint the first
Chair at Tahquamenon Falls
prototype. Mary says she hopes everyone enjoys and respects the chairs. The majority of
chairs will return to the people who created them, but some will be available for sale the
last day of the festival. Istu! - Have a Seat!

Punapuitakin tfilillli on kaadettu
Pihkan tuoksu se tuttua on.
Kirvesvarteen on taidolla tartuttu
Kodit kauniit laitettu on.
Omiin voimiin on uskottu, luotettu vaan
Olkoon paivli tai y&lt;&gt; valoton.

Juuret juurtuvat vieraaseen maahankin voi
Kera lastemme kasvamaan.
Nauru, laulu ja kannel myos tfililllikin soi
Kuka murheita muistamaan.
Ilo mielin nyt yhdessli juhlimme nain

Kaymme yhdessa nain, kaymme klisikkain

Tule tlinne vaan, tule Torontoon.

Sydlin laulaa laulua rakkauden.
Tule tlinne vaan, tule Torontoon
Hei, kaikki juhlimaan.

�James Lindala - an educator par excellence

James Lindala

Vice-chair of the FGF 2000 Board, James "Jaakko" Lindala,
might bt able to leave his hospital room in Markham for long
enough to pay a brief visit to the festival he helped organize.
Jaakko has been recuperating from a devastating accident that
took place, ironically, on Finnish Independence Day last year
at Toronto airport. He lost his right leg and remains paralyzed
from the neck down after he was struck by a heavy limousine
and pinned between it and the van he was unloading. With
his iron will and the help of his devoted wife Viola he is
expected to recover enough to leave the hospital and continue
with his life at their beautiful new home outside the bustle of
the big city.

George James Lindala, Jr. truly represents the nobility of.the
Finnish immigrant community of Toronto. His grandfather, Jaakko Lindala, was the first
Finn to arrive in this city when he moved here from the U.S. in 1890. A tailor and ardent
socialist, he and his partner, Jussi Ranta, set up a shop in downtown Toronto. Other Finnish
tailors were able to rent work space for themselves in these premises, which eventually
sheltered 50 tailors and became an important meeting place for newcomers from Finland.
Lindala's shop served as an employment and travel agency, political school for workers, and
library. It sponsored many activities, including Finnish leftist newspapers like Raivaaja of
Fitchburg.
Jaakko even ran for Mayor ofToronto in 1907, and did quite well. With more than 8,000
votes "the foreign socialist" was the runner-up, having beaten the most distinguished lawyer
of the city.
Following in his grandfather's footsteps, James Junior also
became an educator. He worked as high school teacher,
principal, and school board official. Also like his
grandfather, he has lived and worked in both Canada and for
some years in the U.S.
James Lindala, now 64, has always been part ofFinnish
activities. He has been a member of the Agricola Finnish
Lutheran church since 1940. Following his recent retirement
he really dived into the thick of it. His credits include:
long-time chairman of the Suomi-Koti senior's centre, former
president of the Canadian Friends of Finland, and member of
Vapaa Sana newspaper editorial board. In 1996 he was
instrumental in founding an umbrella organization for all
Finnish seniors' centres in Canada. He is vice-chair of the FGF
Jaakko Lindala
2000 Board and a member of its Pehr Kalm committee. He
has been studying Finnish with the goal of mastering the language thoroughly.

Less well known to Finns is his work as a Scout leader from the I950's up until recently. In
1992, in recognition of those many years of service, James Lindala was awarded the Canada
125 Medal by the Governor General.
His wife Viola is an artist, and also a pianist who has been involved with women's gymnastics
in the community as accompanist. Their son, Eric, has continued in the family tradition of
education by teaching English to Czech students in Prague. TheLindalas' other son, Paul,
lives in Toronto and has chosen a different career for himself.
"Bettering the world has been the family vice of the
Lindalas," joked Finnish ambassador to Canada, Veijo
Sampovaara, in October 1998 at Suomi-Koti, as he
pinned on Jaakko's lapel the medal of the Order of the
Finnish Lion, Knight First Class.

�Tribute to Bob Selva/a
On April 6 of this year - exactly 14 weeks before opening day the FINN GRAND FEST 2000 Board received news that Robert
W. Selva/a had died. Without Bob Se/vii/d's vision and initial
leadership this Festival would not be taking place. Until shortly
before his death, Bob was US Co-chair of the FGF 2000
Executive Committee. It is a great sadness that he did not live to
see the results of his inspiration: the first-ever joint festival of
American and Canadian Finns. 'lnefollowing is condensed from
an obituary written by his long-time friend, K. Marianne
Wargelin, and is printed with her permission as a tribute to Bob
and in appreciation for his work.
Robert W. Selvala, President and Executive Secretaiy of
FinnFest USA for its first 17 years, died at his home in
Owatonna, Minnesota on April 6, 2000.
Bob Selvala was bom as a third generation Finnish American on December 16, 1934 in Minneapolis,
Minnesota. 1l1ere he grew up in the Finntown surrounded by things Finnish yet, typically, never learned the
language. He graduated from North High School in 1952, and on.lune 25, 1955 married his high school
sweetheart, Mae V. Engbloom.
While working and raising his family, he auended and gr.iduated from Mankato State University, then
rnntinued his studies at the University of Minnesota. After a 33 year career with Truth Hardware, Bob
retired in November, 1999.
Robert Selvala lived a typical small-town Minnesota life with his wife, two children, and faithful dog Misty.
He was an usher at his church for over thirty years. As a Boy Scout leader, he would take his young troop
camping in Northern Minnesota. He was a member of the Order of Eagles. He held season tickets to the
Minnesota Vikings and faithfully auended their home games.
Bob Selvala lived-a less typical life as a Finnish American. An early leader in the 1970's revival of FinnishAmerican cultural activities, Bob helped to organize the Southem Minnesota Finnish American Society,
which holds a legendary St. Urho's Day party each year. In 1982, he attended the meeting at which Suomi
Seura (The Finland Society of Finland) called for Fi1mish Americans from across the USA to consider
creating an annual summer festival. He then served as the publicity chainnan for the first FinnFest USA
held in Minneapolis in 1983. He was elected President of the first FinnFest USA board and a year later,
Executive Sccrctaiy, posts he held until stricken with brain cancer in.lune, 1999.
FinnFest USA grew as a festival from an initial 1,000 to 10,000 aUendees in 1996. Bob Selvala maintained
tl1e national office in his home. It was tl1ere tl1at he kept tlte records, negotiated festival sites and discovered
tl1e volunteers who created each FinnFest. Once or twice a year, he visited the next festival site to encourage
and offer advice and counsel. FinnFests continued year after year because of Bob Selvala's hard work.
Bob Selvala brought FinnFest USA into an intemational dialogue with tl1e Finnish Canadians. The
friendship that formed between Bob and MauriJalava of Ouawa led tl1em to conclude that a joint Canadian
and American festival would be a good project. TI1e Toronto Finn Grand Fest 2000 attests to their dream
and hard work.
Bob Selvala also brought FinnFest USA into dialogue with the Finnish Diaspora tliroughout tl1e world. He
became involved with Suomi Seura and was selected as the first recipient of tl1eir "Expatriate of Finland"
award. In 1997 Bob was elected l.!S Representative to the Expatriate Parliament Delegate Assembly, a post
he held from August 1997 to November 1998.
Bob Selvala supported a wide range of Finnish American activities. He researched his family history, now
on file at tl1e Immii;ralion Histo1y Research Center at tl1e University of Minnesota. Bob also edited
FiimFest l SA. 17,c 1'ii~·t Decade: 1982-1.992
TI1e Robert W. Selvala FinnFest USA Memorial Fund, 636 16th St. S.E., Owatonna, Mirmesota S5060, has
been established in his honor.

�Suomalaisen Siirtolaisen Elamankulkua
Tana kesaisenli viikonloppuna pidllmme Uilllla Torontossajuhlat suuret,
omistettu kaikille Teille, ja erikoisesti, joilla on suomalaiset juuret.
Kuulumme osana pitkaan, nakymattomaan ketjuun, aivan pienina renkaina.
Niita aina Tyynenmeren rannoilta, tuonne Atlannin perukoille riittaa.
Yhteenkuuluvaisuuden tunteen voimalla, ne meidlit nliin yhteen liittlili.
On Suomi monelle meistll rakas, ikimuistoinen, pohjoinen synnyinmaa.
Sinne jai osa sydamestllmme, sen omanaan ainaisesti pitiili saa.
Keskuudesta heimon saman, kauas tllnne siirtolaisiksi olemme l!ihteneet.
Esi-isamme uhria maksoivat kallista, arvoa sille saamme me antaa,
ja kuvia aikojen menneitten, syvalla sielussamme mukana kantaa.
Meren yli saapuvia lukemattomat vastoinkaymiset odottivat Llinnenmailla.
Unelma paremmasta elamlistll otti aikaa. Paljosta oltiin tietoja vailla.
Kieli oli vieras, tavat oudot, viikeii valtavasti, monenlaista eri rotua.
Oltiinpa sitten metsa-kaivos-piika- tai tyossa missa, paljon piti sietaa.
Kaiken taman moni "Luvattuun maahan" muuttanut, varsin hyvin tietlia.
Kielikursseille useinkin, sinne vain kykenevat, kiireesti hiiadettiin.
"Ei muutoin toitll loytyisi helpolla", nliin neuvoen heille sll!idettiin.
Alkoi oppi kaksikielisyyden tllrkelllle taidolle, mitll yllapidettiin aina.
Opettajan neuvolla vaivoin kummat alinteet pakoittaen kurkusta tuli.
Seassa vokaalit ja konsonantit siinli kuin itsestlllin suussa suli.
Ensin kovin orpoina tlilillli, vieraita oloja ihmetellen, kuljettiin.
Onneksi pian meidat omaan, etniseen siirtolaispiiriin suljettiin.
Haaleilla sai harrastaa omaan kieleen ja kulttuuriin kuuluvia perinteitii.
Seka uusia tulijoita, ettii kauemmin ollutta porukkaa, kavi aina siellli.
Oli myos kirkotja seurat. Kaikkiin mentiin raskaan tyopllivanjalkeen viela.
Ankea koti-ikiivll vanhaan maahan vaivasi, etenkin naisvakeli alussa.
Mielissll asui vielli kaipaus entisen, tutun elon ja olojen halussa.
Missli vain "Kotimaani ompi Suomi" save! soi, se niin haikean olon toi.
Seuratoiminta toi lohtua, ja nosti toiveet myonteiseen odotukseen kyllll.
Vuosien mittaan juurtumista auttoi lasten syntyminen, piti perhetta yllll.
Erehdyksill tehtiin, niista piti sisulla selviytya, ja vastukset voittaa.
Mutta vihdoinkin, jo viisaampina, uskottin, parempi aika vielli koittaa.
Alettiin hiljalleen sopeutua, ja omaksuttiin ohjeet nuo adoptoidun maan.
Elama tuntui taydelta, oli koti, tyo, ystavia, jopa oma siirtolaisten kieli.
Ah, fingelska! Se kuulostaa "nottu plilld", ja tulee nin hyvll,.kotoinen mieli!

�Odoteltiin sitten innolla tlirke!Hi paiva!i, sille aikaa tarpeeksi suoden.
Ottihan se tavallisesti, maan lain mukaan, v!ih!in alle viiden vuoden.
Oli jo vannasti p!i!itetty, ett!i Amerikan mantereelle haluttiin j!i!id!i.
Ja niin koitti se p!iiv!i, kun saatiin uuden kotimaan kansalaiseksi hakea,
olihan kai tuo, ihan itse valittu asuinseutu, monelle jo niin kovin makea.
Perinteet ja merkitys isanmaan on aina samalla arvossa pidetty myos.
Pala Suomea on tiinne pysyvasti sidottu, meid!in jokaisen lujassa tyoss'.
Maailmankuvan avartuminen auttoi soputumista eri kansallisuuksien keskellii.
Joukkoon kansojen on myos oma kulttuurimme, t!i!illa jatkumaan tuotu .
Nain on j!ilkipoiville, heille aivan korvaamattoman tarkea pohja Iuotu.
Ehka kysymys saattaajoskus viela mieleen tulla, kuin arvailuna vain,
millaista olisi synnyinmaassa ollut kaikki elonp!iiv!it viett!i!i ain?
Elaen joukossa omaisten, ilot, surut jakaen, ja yhdess!i vanhaksi tulla.
Utta ilman siirtolaisel!im!in kokemuksia monia, paljosta oisi oltu vailla.
Uskon monen Teist!i liisnaolijoista, tuumivan asiasta, tiillii samalla lailla.

�Military Exhibit
Finn Grand Fest 2000 is pleased to welcome the largest active display of Finnish military
memorabilia, uniforms and equipment to be found outside of Finland. The exhibit includes
actual armament used on the front, uniforms of both the Finnish and Russian Armies, and
of the Lotta Svard, black and white photographs, and documents obtained directly from
Russian archives.
Because the exhibit contains many Finnish and Russian artifacts and documents, it has been
animated in English so more people can learn and enjoy the history. This private collection
is owned and managed by Tero Tuononen, and offers many rare pieces and a glimpse of how
life was at the front.
The Military Exhibit will be on display at City Hall, adjacent to Mel Lastman Square, daily
Wednesday, July 12th through Saturday, July 15th, and until mid-day on Sunday, July 16th .

•••
Ancestors Clothesline
Remembering who we are - including our ancestors in our festival.
Picture this ... pieces of white fabric about the size of a pillowcase with images of our
Finnish ancestors transferred onto them. The images reach as far back in history as possible
and may depict people, dwellings, or documents. Imagine thousands of these, lovingly
embroidered and decorated by hand, suspended from a clothesline stretching across the Finn
Grand Fest 2000 festival site. Together, they tell a powerful visual story.
These pieces revive our ancestors and present them in a way that is both spiritual and
enduring. Imagine the faces of your grandparents and great-grandparents transferred onto
cloth and hung so that the light of the sun illuminates them and fresh breezes gently stir
them. The Ancestor's Clothesline is a loving and moving way to keep our Finnish heritage
alive.
Brought to life by artist Mary Wright from Marquette,
Michigan, The Ancestors Clothesline project will allow
hundred of Finns to share their heritage and "treasures"
with visitors to Finn Grand Fest 2000. The "Clothesline"
is found at the main festival site, Mel Lastman Square.
Come and enjoy the memories!

The George Weston Recital Hall
The George Weston Recital Hall is widely recognized as Canada's best recital hall and
one of the top music venues in the world. The Hall was opened by the magnificent
soprano Dame Kiri Te Kanawa on November 22, 1993.
"The fist review of the Recital Hall came from no less a source than Dame Kiri Te
Kanawa. And her verdict? A RA VE!"--William Littler, Toronto Star
Many audiences and artists have compared the hall to Amsterdam's Concertgebouw and
Vienna's Grosser Musikvereinsaal, the European recital halls on which the George
Weston Recital Hall was modeled. The 1,032 seat hall's proportions and decor reflect the
influence of these two blue-ribbon international venues. Famous New York acoustician
Russell Johnson has achieved an acoustic marvel with this hall. There is literally no
place like it in North America. Background noise is defined as "below the threshold of
hearing".
The Recital Hall, created to provide a matchless setting for the performance and
recording of classical music is an acoustically ideal rectangular room. This shape creates
the conditions that make it possible to hear the thunderous 4th movement of Beethoven's
9th symphony as effectively as an actor's whispered aside. The audience is seated on two
levels with the single balcony wrapping around the stage from above, establishing the
appreciated intimacy necessary for a performance connection between artist and
audience. The walls of the hall have been meticulously insulated, the process
responsible for the near complete exclusion of background noise. For further sound
manipulation, retractable curtains and panels provide optimal listening conditions in a
variety of configurations.
The modem lines of polished bird's eye maple, plum coloured seats, a midnight blue
background and determined architectural details make for an aesthetic victory to
compliment the world class sound that is synonymous with the Toronto Centre for the
Arts.

�Todellakinl Suoma/aista teatteria Pohjois-Amerikassal
Toronton Suomalainen Teatteri perustettiin jo v. 1932 nimellli Finnish Social Clubin
Nliyttelijlit. Nliytelmili on enimmlikseen esitetty suomenkielellli; muutama
englanninkielinenkin on piiiissyt ohjelmistoon, kuten tiimlivuotinen juhlaniiytelmiimme
Laivanrakentaja - The Shipbuilder.
Laivanrakentaja on tosi tarina Tom Sukasesta, perlianantamattomasta monitoimimiehestli,
joka muutti Suomesta edellisvuosisadan vaihteessa U.S.A:han ja sielta edelleen kavellen! - Kanadaan.
Sukanen vain vahvistaa sisu-sanan merkitystli, ja tlistli llihtien voisimmekin sanoa
Sisu, Sibelius, Saunaja Sukanen .. .
Toronton Suomalaisen Teatterin puolesta toivotan teidlit sydlimellisesti tervetulleeksi
Finn Grand Festiin ja Laivanrakentajaan. Toivon, ettli tulette katsomaan esitystamme!

Maarit Koivunen
Puheenjohtaja, Toronton Suomalainen Teatteri.

•••
Yes, indeed! There is Finnish theatre in North-America!
The Toronto Finnish Theatre was established in 1932 under the name "Finnish Social
Clubin Nliyttelijat". Although most productions have been in Finnish, some plays in
English have entered the repertoire such as this year's festival play - The Shipbuilder.
The Shipbuilder is the true story of Tom Sukanen, a stubborn and versatile man, who
emigrated from Finland to the United States at the tum of the last century, and then
continued - on foot! - to Canada.
Sukanen's example gives added meaning to the Finnish word "sisu", and from now on,
the famous Finnish saying might read
Sisu, Sibelius, Sauna and Sukanen ...
On behalfofthe Toronto Finnish Theatre, I welcome you to Finn Grand Fe!;t 2000 and to
the festival play. We are proud to present The Shipbuilder, and I hope that you will
enjoy the performance.

Maarit Koivunen
Chairperson, Toronto Finnish Theatre.

TERVEHDYS
Haluan esittaa
Suomen valtiovallan puolesta
Iampiman tervehdyksen
Thunder Bayssa
24.6.-3.7.1994 pidettavien
Kanadan Suomalaisten
Suurjuhlien osanottajille.
Thunder Bayta kutsutaan hyvalla syylla kanadansuomalaisten
paakaupungiksi. Kaupungin vaestosta yli 10% on suomalaista
alkuperaa ja se muistuttaa hyvin paljon koti-Suomea. Thunder
Bayssa nakee hyvin selkeasti sen miten paljon Kanadassa arvostetaan suomalaisia. Suhteet kaupungin johdon ja suomalaissiirtokunnan valilla oval esimerkilliset ja se antaa oman Ieimansa
tamanvuotisille suurjuhlille.
Kulunut vuosi on ollut seka Kanadalle etta Suomelle kaannekohta
talouslaman voittamisessa. Kummassakin maassa odotetaan
bruttokansantuotteen kasvavan selvasti pitkan tauon jalkeen.
Kanadan Suomalaisten Suurjuhlilla on tarkea asema suomalaisen
kulttuurin sailyttamisessa ja vaalimisessa. Se on kuitenkin vain
jaavuoren huippu siita arvokkaasta tyosta, jonka te kanadansuomalaiset joka vuosi teette perinteiden jatkamiseksi ja siirtamiseksi
tuleville sukupolville.
Haluan tassa yhteydessa toivottaa menestysta niille lukuisille
puuhamiehille ja -naisille, jotka ovat jarjestamassa Nordic Games tapahtumaa ensi talveksi. Kaupunkinne tulee tuolloin olemaan
suuren huomion kohteena myos Suomessa.
Kiitan suurjuhlien jarjestelyihin osallistuneita ja toivotan kaikille
muistorikkaita hetkia Thunder Bayssa 1994!

�Once again, the Finnish Canadian Grand Festival will
remind all Finns living in Canada of their special Finnish
ways. With quiet pride Canadian Finns can show off a bit
during these glorious celebrations.
We will show our visitors from Finland how we Canadians
of Finnish descent have done our part to build Canada
and still preserve some of the important aspects of being
Finnish. We will also show our non-Finnish Canadian
friends how to celebrate the Finnish way.
Quiet pride in a job well done has always been a Finnish
trait. The quiet pride of Finns in Thunder Bay will be well
deserved as our quests enjoy the hospitality of the hard
working organizing Committee of the Grand Festival and
the citizens of our City.
To our quests, I wish a warm and enjoyable stay and to
the organizers of this huge event I wish to take this
opportunity to extend my congratulations on a job well
done.

KANADAN SUOMALAINEN
KULTTUURILIITTO

The 55th Finnish Canadian Grand Festival belongs to a historical series of
Finnish Canadian summer festivals. They are celebrated by the Finnish
communities and their friends throughout Canada: in Montreal, Timmins,
Sudbury, Sault Ste. Marie, Calgary, Vancouver, Toronto and Thunder Bay,
which is being now the host of the festival for the nineth time.
The Thunder Bay Grand Festival Committee must receive our gratitude for
the hard work they have done in planning and managing of the event. We also
appreciate the enthusiasm of performers from near and far exhibiting their
Finnish cultural traditions. They know that it is a part of the multicultural
heritage of Canada.
The festival traditions have survived because of the joyous festival spirit
brought through these years by our esteemed guests. Their participation is
another valued ingredient of our summer festival. The membership and Board
of Directors of the FCCF wish you and your family an enjoyable celebration.

PUHEENJOHTAJAN
TERVEHDYS
Kanadansuomalaisten 55. Suurjuhlien tekeminen on ollut
kiinnostavaa puuhaa, johon on aivan erikoisen leimansa antanut
kaikkien kaupunkimme suomalaisseurojen mukana oleminen
suurjuhlajarjestelyissa.
Suurjuhlilla summataan taas kerran kaiken sen vapaaehtoistyon
tuottama mielihyva, jolla me suomalaiset olemme jo 55. kerran
juhliamme lapi vieneet.
Toivonkin, etta sataa tai paistaa, tulee voittoa tai tappiota, me
kaikki, seka suurjuhlavieraat etta jarjestajat, tahtaisimme yhteiseen
suurjuhlatunnelmaan, josta saisimme ikimuistettavia muistoja kotiin
vietavaksi ja samalla halun jatkaa suomalaisia perinteita Suurjuhlien
merkeissa.
Suurjuhlatoimikunnan ja kaikkien Thunder Bayn suomalaisten
puolesta toivotan Teidat tervetulleiksi tanne Kanadan sydameen
viettamaan Kanadan Suomalaisten 55. Suurjuhlia!
The planning of the 55th Finnish Canadian Grand Festival has been
a stimulating experience due to the extraordinary efforts of all
Finnish societies in the city contributing to the organization of the
Grand Festival.
The success of the Grand Festival once again will be the
culmination of voluntary work which brings satisfaction and with
which Finns have brought 55 festivals to a conclusion.
It is my hope that if it rains or shines, whether a profit or a loss is
realized, that all Grand Festival guests and organizers, aim to create
a unified Grand Festival spirit from which unforgetable memories
may be brought home and at the same time the desire to continue to
preserve our Finnish heritage with renewed enthusiam.
On behalf of the Grand Festival Organizing Committee and the
Thunder Bay Finnish community, I wish to welcome you to the heart
of Canada to celebrate the 55th Finnish Canadian Grand Festival.

�MITTUMAARI '94
Mittumaarijuhlia nykyisessa muodossaan on vietetty vuodesta 1982, joten
tamanvuotiset juhlat ovat kolmannettoista. Juhlien ajatuksen toteutti Martti Vanhapelto, Kiikureitten ohjaaja, Finlandia Clubin johdon toiveena, koska haluttiin jotain erikoista keskikesaamme - Juhannukseen. Jarjestelyista
on huolehtinut kansantanhukerho Kiikurit, viime vuosina yhdessa Pelimannikerhon kanssa.
Ohjelma on koostunut paaasiallisesti paikallisten ryhmien toimesta, tanssi- ja musiikkipitoisena. Suomalaisryhmien lisaksi ohjelmassa on ollut
niinsanottuja kielisiakin ryhmia, kuten tamiin vuoden juhlatkin osoittavat. Kahdesti on ohjelmassa ollut Kruunuhaat, pohjalaisen esimerkin mukaan ja kahdesti on esitetty taysimittainen naytelma ja lisaksi katkelmia
mm. Seitsemasta veljeksesta. Vierailevina esiintyjina on ollut aina Australiaa myoten ja kolmasti on ollut vieraana tanhuryhma Suomesta.
Polkkakilpailu suomalaisessa polkassa on sailynyt ohjelmassa alusta lahtien. Kysymyksessa oli maratonpolkka, mutta kun aika kahdesti meni yli
tunnin, on siirrytty arvostelusysteemiin ja paatuomariksi on saatu joku ulkopuolinen. Tamanvuotisessa kilpailussa arvostelu alkaa ensimmaisen viiden minuutin jalkeen. Alusta lahtien on Mittumaarijuhlissa ollut myos ravintolat palvelemassa nalkaisia seka janoisia vieraita.
Tapiolan kaksipaivaisten tapahtumien lisaksi ohjelmaan on kuulunut
myos Mittumaaritanssit Finlandia Clubilla. Ulkoilmajuhlat ovat saan armoilla, mutta tahan mennessa on sateen takia vain yhden kerran juhlat
"peruutettu" lauantain osalta. Ensimmaisissa juhlissa oli mukana myos urheilua ja kalastusta, mutta ne jatettiin pois ja urheilupuolta on Mittumaareissa edustanut perisuomalainen tikanheittokilpailu (nuolenheitto).
Yleiso ja yhdyskunta haluaa aina uudistuksia, mutta uskomme Mittumaarien sailyttavan jatkossakin paikkansa keskikesamme juhlistajana ei yksinomaan paikkakuntalaisille vaan lukuisille vieraillemme Yhdysvalloista,
Suomesta ja ympari maailman. Tervetuloa viihtymaan luonnonkauniissa
Tapiolassa.

On behalf of the people and the Government of Ontario, I am pleased
to extend warm greetings to everyone gathered in Thunder Bay to attend
the 49th Annual Finnish Canadian Grand Festival.
I offer a special welcome to our guests from across Canada and the
United States who have come to share in the spirit and fellowship of this
popular Finnish Festival. I also take this opportunity to commend the
many volunteers from the Finnish community in Thunder Bay who have
contributed their time, energy and resources to serve as your hosts during
this weekend of events.
Our people of Finnish heritage play an important role in Ontario's multicultural society and have contributed greatly to the strength and prosperity
of our province. A celebration of Finnish customs and traditions, this
Festival successfully promotes the preservation of your rich cultural heritage.
Please accept my best wishes for a most enjoyable Finnish Grand Festival 1988.

It is fitting, that once again Thunder Bay should host the Annual Finnish

Over the years the Finnish community of Canada, and Thunder Bay, as

process to our cultural life.
In all fields of endeavour whether it be business, sports, cultural or in
volunteer work the vitality of the Finnish community is most evident.
May I, at this time, extend an official welcome to all those who are visiting
us from the United States and those from other parts of Canada.

and myself.

MESSAGE FROM THE PRIME MINISTf.R

MESSAGE OlJ PREMIER MINISTRE

I am delighted to send my warmest greetings and
sincere best wishes to all those attending the 46th
Finnish-Canadian Grand Festival in Sault Ste. Marie.
One of the strengths of the Canadian social
fabric is the degree to which the many groups which make up
our cultural diversity maintain their individual
char :teristics while at the same time contributing to a
strong and harmonious Canada. Our country has grown and
prospered largely due to the fact it made welcome men and
,,, ~men from all parts of the world. These people joined
together in a common cause -- to make Canada their home -and it is their skills, hard work and vitality which have
created a flourishing and vibrant country.
Canadians of Finnish origin have been major
contributors to this prosperity and the members of this
community can be proud of the role they have played in
Canada's history and in her future. On behalf of the
Government of Canada, I congratulate the organizers of the
Finnish-Canadian Grand Festival for the many cultural
contributions it will make to our Canadian heritage. May
you have every success in meeting the challenges of the
future.

�TASAVALLAN PRESIOENTIN TERVEHOYS KANAOAN SUOMALAISTEN
46. SUURJUHLILLE SAULT SAINTE MARIE'SSA, ONTARIOSSA
28. - 30.6.1985

Kanadan suomalaisten kesajuhlilla on pitkat perinteet, tanaan niita
vietetaan jo 46. kerran.
Nama vuotuiset suurjuhlat ovat osoitus siita, etta suomalaisuus
elaa voimakkaana Kanadassa. Ne osoittavat, etta eri puolilla laajaa
Kanadaa asuvat suomalaiset haluavat jatkuvasti pitaa yhteytta
keskenaan ja vaalia siteita entiseen kotimaahan.

Me Suomessa annamme suuren arvon tyolle, jota Kanadan suomalaiset
tekevat kansallisten perinteidensa yllapitamiseksi ja vaalimiseksi.
Lahetan parhaan tervehdykseni 46. suurjuhlille, tilaisuuden
osanottajille ja kaikille Kanadan suomalaisille.

�Suomen Kanadan suurlahettilaan,
tervehdys 46., surrjuhille
Suomen virallisena edustajana Kanadassa, minulle suo suuren
ilon ja kuunian saada tuoda tervehdykseni naille Kanadan Suomalaisten Suurjuhlille Sault Ste. Mariessa.
Nama suurjuhlat, nyt jo jarjestyksessa
46:nnet, ovat ainutlaatuinen ja arvokas osoitus niista pitkista perinteista ja siita
hartaudesta, joilla suomalaisuutta ja suomalaista kulttuuria vaalitaan
Kanadassa.
Tassa suuressa monikulttuurimaassa suomalaiset tunnetaan
nykyaan erityisesti ansioistaan kaupan, teollisuuden, urheilun ja
taiteiden aloilla. Suomen erinomaisesta maineesta suuri kiitos
lankeaa niille ahkerille ja tunnollisille suomalaisille, jotka
vuosikymmenien aikana ovat asettautuneet tanne_pysyvasti asumaan
ja hankkimaan toimeentulonsa kaukana entisesta kotimaastaan.
Kanadan suomlaiset eivat syytta ole ylpeita syntyperastaan ja
aina tahan samaan vuoden aikaan, alkukesaan ajoittuvat suomalaisten
suurjuhlat muodostavat suomalaisena olemisen kohokohdan,
suomalaisten kokoontuessa pitkienkin matkojen paasta viettamaan
iloista aikaa yhdessa seka vaalimaan omia, yhteisia, runsaita
peri nteitaan.
Nama suurenmoiset juhlat vahvistavat niita siteita, jotka vallitsevat
eri puolilla Kanadaan asuvien suomalaisten kesken. Ne ovat
erinomainen osoitus Kanadaan muuttaneiden suomalaisten vakevasta
halusta jatkuvasti pitaa yhteyksia ylla entiseen kotimaahansa. Me
kaikki suomalaiset olemme ylpeita teista ja annamme suuren
arvon sille tyolle, jota te jatkuvasti teette naiden parhaiden
suomalaisten perinteiden yllapitamiseksi.
Haluan esittaa parhaat kiitokseni erityisesti suurjuhlatoimi-kunnalle
ja sen kautta kaikille suomalaisille ja Suomen ystiiville, joiden
ponnistelujen ansiosta me nyt vietamme 46. Kanadan suomalaisten
suurjuhlaa.

�Greetings to all the participants in the
45th annual Finnish Grand Festival.
Canada is enriched by the contributions of
its citizens of Finnish ancestry. They have earned
admiration for their achievements in commerce, music,
athletic and numerous other activities. The cultural
traditions they have maintained and developed enhance
our multicultural society.
I am pleased, therefore, to welcome all
visitors to Canada who have come to attend this longstanding event. I congratulate the organizers, and
offer my best wishes to all for an enjoyable
celebration.

�On behalf of the people and the
Government of Ontario, I extend my greetings and
a warm welcome to all those from across Canada,
the United States and abroad who are gathered
together in Sudbury on the occasion of the 45th
Annual Finnish Canadian Grand Festival, which
also will celebrate the Bicentennial of Ontario.
For 45 years this Festival has served
not only to renew and strengthen cultural ties
among people of Finnish origin but to foster the
appreciation and preservation of Finnish traditions
as an enriching dimension to the Canadian fabric
of diversity.
Your Festival takes on even more
meaning in the year during which Ontarians are
saluting the contributions of all our generations
of people from around the world to the development
of our great province and its vibrant multicultural
society.
As you honour the Province of Ontario's
history as well as your cherished cultural
heritage, I acknowledge the contribution of our
Finnish Community to the greatness of Ontario
and wish you all a memorable 1984 Festival.

~~
William G. Davis

�MESSAGE FROM THE REGIONAL CHAIRMAN

There cannot be
Finnish Community of
Day than to host the
from June 29 through

a more appropriate manner for the
Sudbury Region to commemorate Canada
annual Finnish Canadian Grand Festival
July 1, 1984.

Much of the strength of our Region has its very roots
in the Finnish people who helped make this one of the best
communities in Canada. The Finnish people of this community
have always worked hard, demanded little, contributed much,
and showed the rest of the community how to celebrate a zest
for life.
During your three-day festival, our visitors will
sample some of those very fine attributes as they participate
in a varied program of sports, arts, and musical events.
They will also, I know, be the recipients of an abundance of
that hospitality that is typical of this Region, not only
from their Finnish hosts, but from the rest of our people as
well.
Regional Municipality Sudburyn alueen ja Regional
Councilin puolesta tahdomme lausua sydamellisesti teidat
tervetulleiksi meidan keskuutemme juhlimaan, me toivomme,
etta teid!n Canada paiva juhlat ovat onnistuneet ja nauttisitte
taalla olostanne. Tervetuloa pian takaisin.

citizens of Sudbury, I extend a sincere welcome to
Sudbury, to the participants in the Finnish Canadian

Since Sudbury's founding some one hundred years
ago, we have been fortunate to have had the opportunity
to share in the cultural activities of the various ethnic
groups from around the world who have made their home in
Sudbury. We have enjoyed the traditions, songs, dances
and foods of many cultures and this has indeed been a
rewarding experience.
Sudbury's
in our City and
pride they have
to each other.
cultural wealth

Finns comprise one of the largest groups
they are well respected for the strong
in their traditions and for their closeness
They have contributed a great deal to our
and for this, we are grateful.

As Mayor of the City of Sudbury, I assure you that
you are very welcome here. The Finnish Canadian Grand
Festival will no doubt be successful as it will incorporate
such interesting and popular elements as sports, art and
music.
There will be much to celebrate during your 45th
Festival - not only will you be in Sudbury for Canada Day
activities but you will also be part of Sudbury's
celebration of Ontario's Bi-centennial. We are honoured
that you will be joining us in celebrating these two
important events, along with our own Finnish community.
I trust your visit will be a memorable occasion.
Indeed, we will enjoy having you.

Message from Premier Lougheed

On behalf of the Government of Alberta, I am pleased to extend greetings to the many participants in the Finnish Canadian
44th Grand Festival. I know this memorable occasion will prove
an excellent opportunity to renew old acquaintances and meet
new friends.
Canada is a favoured land, in that we enjoy a rich and varied
culture resulting from the settlement in this country of many
different ethnic groups. The Finnish Canadians have made a
unique contribution to this mosaic, and Canada as a whole is a
richer nation because of the special values, skills and customs
that have come to us from Finland.
I know you will be focusing on both your heritage and your
aspirations for the future as you participate in this 44th Grand
Festival - and I want to express my sincere good wishes to all
of you for a most successful and enjoyable celebration.

To the Participants
44th Annual Finnish-Canadian
Grand Festival

As Consul of Finland for Southern Alberta, I wish
to welcome all visitors to the 44th Finnish-Canadian
Grand Festival. I would like to pay tribute to the
extensive efforts of the Calgary Finnish-Canadian community
which has made this event possible and which, I am sure,
will ensure its success.
This is an occassion when we hope that old friendships will be renewed, and new friends made in the rich
sports and cultural atmosphere of the Festival.
I also hope that you will have an opportunity to
enjoy the special Western hospitality which is very much
a part of life in this City, especially during the Calqary
Stampede. Calgarians look forward to the pleasure of
hosting you again during the 1988 Winter Olympics, at which
I anticipate the Finnish athletes will play a prominent
role.
Best wishes to you all.

On behalf of the many citizens of Alberta that are
interested in meeting people of differing cultural
backgrounds, I wish to welcome the participants
in the 44th Annual Finnish Canadian Grand Festival.
We are honored you have chosen to hold your
44th Grand Festival here in Calgary, Alberta, and
particularly this year, and at this time of year. Finland is sending 46 athletes to participade in Universiade, the International Games for University
students. As well, in summer our unique countryside is at its most beautiful best
and you can also get a glimpse of the old west at the Calgary Stampede.
I know your organizing committee has been working very hard to make this a
most memorable occasion for all delegates.
I am looking forward to meeting you at the Festival and sharing this celebration
of Finnish traditions and maybe a little "pulla".

�About Calgary...
One of the worthwhile places to visit while in Calgary, is the
Calgary Zoo, which houses 1,400 animals. It also houses
something of interest to people of Finnish origin. You see, all
the original dinosaur models, most of which are still in existence, were created by John (Jussi) Kanerva. The old dinosaur park area is named after him. The big brontosaurus,
Dinny, is still one of the mammoth favorites of the zoo-going
children. The zoo is only 10 minutes away from downtown
and is reached by bus or by taking a leisure walk on the
shores of Bow River.
... ....
For those who enjoy viewing the customs and artifacts of the
past, Heritage Park and Glenbow Museum offer the best
bets. Situated on 66 acres, the Heritage Park features anything from blacksmith shop to a sternwheeler ride on the
reservoir. Park is easily reached from downtown by public
transit. The Glenbow Museum offers an excellent introduction to Western Canada and really shouldn't be missed .
.....
While downtown and shopping, do not miss The Devonian
Gardens. To your surprise you'll find 2½ acres of gardens,
pools, walkways and fountains right in the heart of downtown shopping area. Located in the Toronto Dominion
Square between 7th and 8th Avenues at 2 St. W .

.

... ...

While at the university area, don't forget the Nickle Arts
Museum. If you are a numismatic, the trip there will be fully
worthwhile because the museum houses an excellent rare
coin collection.
Do have a good time and don't forget to yell
'Yahoo' while in the Wild West!

On Kristus kirkon Herra

Maan alhoista sen etsi
Hiin morsiamekseen

ijiiksi itselleen.
