Join me as I discover the unique Danish-American community of Elk Horn, Iowa. I journey through the town's historic cemetery with local historian Warren Whatson, exploring Americanized Danish names.
I also meet the charismatic Mayor Stan Jens, known for his community involvement and appearances on Danish TV. I learn about Elk Horn's efforts to preserve its Danish heritage through events like Tivoli Fest and local cuisine. I experience the warmth of this small Midwestern town that beautifully blends Danish traditions with American life.
