Once each year Christian The Fourth´s Guild is “invaded” by its Norwegian branch which has its home in Oslo.
It was a festive day with initiation of 10 new Norwegian members and when it was so festive it was not least because they had taken 80 Norwegians with them to Aalborg to participate in the initiation.
Chief bencher Niels Voss Hansen mastered the initiation in his usual fine style and the newly initiated had to take a walk in order to greet the Guild-tree in front of Aalborg old city hall and to try the “secret entrance” behind Jens Bang´s Stenhus.
The cheerful initiation ended with luncheon in Søgaard´s Bryghus and here there were wonderful music played by the Guild´s troubadours and by the New Orleans Orchestra that followed the Norwegians to Denmark.
