After coffee in the church basement, the business meeting was called to order upstairs. Topics discussed included plans for the 1998 7-Lag Stevne and greetings from Tom Skattum and Ole Gamme.  After lunch at the church, everyone drove to Spillville, Iowa, for a look at the handcarved clocks found at the Bily Clock Museum.   Coffee and Norwegian pastries were served back at Bethania.
