Odin's Warrior Tribe invites a select group of active and veteran military personnel, along with a few approved civilian participants, to an exclusive hands-on Viking Hall Building Workshop in Branford, Connecticut.

This full-day immersive experience will take place on Saturday, January 10, 2026, and is centered on the construction of our nearly 60-foot Viking Hall — a gathering place of spirit, tradition, and endurance.

Led by the European-trained master craftsmen of Leetes Island Boatworks and Handlavet, this workshop will introduce Viking-era construction techniques rarely practiced today. Whether you’re a seasoned tradesman or simply eager to learn, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

• 0900 Hours – Coffee & Refreshments provided by the Tribe

• Morning Session: Hands-on Viking Hall construction and traditional timber framing techniques

• Midday: Lunch provided by the Tribe
