UPCOMING NEWS & EVENTS

We hope everyone is getting out this Summer and Fall to the many festivals ongoing this season. And engaging in the many activities offered there. Send in your pictures and stories to share.

Consider representing Clan Macpherson at a festival by convening a tent on Clan Row. We have developed a Convener’s Kit to assist with planning and outfitting volunteers. We promise loads of fun for the willing.

The Winter holidays are upon us: the annual Christmas Walk in Alexandria, VA; or the Burns Night dinner in January. Jus’ sayin’!

COMMUNICATIONS

In addition to the website here, we hope everyone is staying abreast of happenings, events, history, “chatter” with the quarterly editions of our journal The Urlar. Now in FlipBook format with many more photos and other graphics plus the many, many pages of news. Consider writing your story or Scottish interests to share with your fellow members. Contact the editor, George McPherson, at .

Our website editor is Dave Muxo and he would enjoy receiving material for the web page. You can find him at .

Remember that you do not have to wait until the annual meetings to offer a suggestion, voice an opinion, or ask a question. Your Regional Commissioners are good sources of information and/or conduits to Council members who can help with just about any inquiry. They are eager to engage and help, year-round.
