Description:
The legend states that Saint Urho drove the grasshoppers out of Finland, saving the grape harvest and thus saving the wine. We will commemorate this feat by celebrating, fighting, displaying green and purple, and eating. A Syr Axel a.k.a. Oog Memorial Atlatl (pre-historic spear) contest will be held.
