WHAT IS THE ICELANDIC NATIONAL LEAGUE OF NORTH AMERICA?

The Icelandic National League of North America (INLNA) was established in 1919 as a non-political, cultural organization.  The INLNA strives to preserve the Icelandic heritage, culture and traditions our Icelandic pioneer forefathers brought to this continent. . .
– by promoting cooperation among Icelandic cultural
groups across North America
– and maintaining kinship ties with the people of Iceland.
INLNA maintains a head office, an email address,
(inl@mymts.net) a website, a facebook presence, has regular executive meetings, annual conventions and offers a variety of programs/activities for it’s members to participate in, such as:
International Visit Tours (to/from Iceland/North America), Icelandic Heritage Calendar, INL Reads Program, Donald K. Johnson Film Screening Program, Icelandic Settlement Tours Program, INL T-Shirts, and other programs as they are developed.  In addition INLNA maintains a large email distribution ‘list’ for easy sharing of Icelandic news, information, projects, and activities.
The Icelandic National League of North America is compiled of various groups and individuals from across the United States and Canada.
