2015 Scholarship Recipient Essay Ava Delmas
	I want to go to Norwegian camp because my Nana told me about Norway after she went to see where her family came from. I want to learn Norwegian because my ancestors came from Norway. I would like to learn about the instruments they used. I want to see what games my ancestors played, see what the clothes they wore and did as kids I want to learn Norwegian arts and crafts. I wonder if my girl ancestors knitted when they were kids and grown-ups. I wonder if they had cows and grew strawberries.
