Detroit Free Press , August 20, 1938 I've found a dozen or two of these articles concerning outings at Nankin Mills Grove at the site of Hines Park on the Livonia and Westland border. In this one the Scandinavian population of Detroit, as was a frequent occurrence in the 1930s, enjoyed the park via a baseball game featuring the Scandinavian League. There was also a chorus, Arpi, which sung under the direction of Axel E. Lofgren. Also, a co-op creamery for the Scandinavian farmers of Michigan was discussed at the gathering as was the Michigan Scandinavian Credit Union, a project that was formed some years before.
