My name is Christina M. Hallam. I was born and raised in Sweden. I came to Cache Valley, UT as an exchange student 1976/1977 and lived with an amazing family, Joseph and Carma Hawkes in North Logan. I went back to Sweden after that year, but later returned with my two young boys in 1987 to continue my studies ay USU. In 1989 I started The Swedish Heritage Society of Cache Valley, UT. We were a few “Swedes” that lived in Cache Valley, that saw very quickly the amazing interest regarding the Swedish and Scandinavian culture and traditions. It has been my dream to create a large organization in this beautiful valley I call home, to help people get acquainted with their roots from “the old country”. I am proud of my heritage and know that so many of my old “countrymen” helped build this valley in so many ways. We hope you will join our group and have fun learning and celebrating old, but fun meaningful traditions for young and old with us.
Tack så mycket!
Christina
