What to expect at some of our annual VES events:
teeme talguD
Mäeotsa Work Days
Held during the spring to fall seasons, we are always looking for more helping hands to work on a variety of maintenance tasks during our talgud (work bee) days.
Taking place from 10am-4pm, tasks often include cleaning inside the hall, raking leaves, mowing the lawn, gardening, and more. Bring along work gloves, water, and snacks and get ready to roll up your sleeves and enjoy the day with us at Mäeotsa. Work days take place rain or shine—we recommend bringing along warm layers.
eesti VABARIIGI AASTAPÄEV
Estonian Independence Day
Estonian Independence Day is February 24, however we normally commemorate this important holiday on the Sunday nearest this date. This celebration takes place at Meie Kodu and has included a variety of formal program elements such as keynote speeches, greetings, song and dance performances, and community reception. Everyone is welcome to attend this special annual commemoration.

St. John’s Day — Midsummer

A variety of food and drink options are available for purchase inside the hall and program elements take place throughout the afternoon and evening. Check back soon for details on this year’s celebration.
