In 2000, Lindsborg decided to cast the traditional Dala shape in large fiberglass forms – an idea patterned after Chicago’s cows on Michigan avenue. Local people and folks with Lindsborg connections sponsor each Wild Dala. Each is unconventionally decorated by one on the towns many local artists. Each new horse is feted in a public unveiling party complete with street theater and parody songs sung by the crowd.

Native Americans peered in the windows during the first service conducted at Freemount Lutheran Church in Freemont, just a few miles southwest of Lindsborg. Sponsors Verne and Nancy Lundquist commissioned this wild Dala by artist Eldon Swensson in honor of the Lundquist’s pioneer family.
