Biographical / Historical

The first gathering of the Estonian youth in Mid West took place in 1958 in Chicago. The gatherings grew into a non-political organization for Estonian youth with the objective to preserve and cultivate Estonian culture in exile. Over the years the range of participants has widened and everyone interested in Estonian culture and history are welcome to take part in the congress.
