Running of the Meatballs

September 9 @ 10:00 am - 3:30 pm

Join us for the Running of the Meatballs during Scandia’s Taco Daze festival held on the first Saturday after Labor Day.  Running of the Meatballs is our annual FUNdraiser. You purchase a meatball (really the number on a meatball), and then cheer your meatball on, as it rolls down Oakhill Road before the Taco Daze parade. You do not need to be present to win.

You can buy your meatballs ahead of time in the Gammelgården Museum of Scandia Butik, or you can buy them during Taco Daze until 3 pm, or until we run out.  Meatballs are $5 for 1, or $20 for 5.
