Every summer, Saint Olaf parishioners form a festival choir to perform the National Anthem at a Minnesota Twins game. This year, Saint Olaf sang the anthem at the Tuesday night game versus the Texas Rangers, June 10, 2025. The Twins may not have won, but the evening was beautiful and Oh, Say, how much Fun!
Check out the video of the National Anthem by Our Saint Olaf Choir and Friends! We already can't wait for next year!
