Event calendar and report on recent activities.

D.C. Dalgliesh Tartan Weavers is in jeopardy. This wonderful boutique, artisan tartan manufacturer is falling upon hard times. It would be more than dreadful to lose them. Please check out their web site and help keep this business alive. You can find them at: www.dcdalgliesh.co.uk

Why not Friend D.C. Dalgliesh on Facebook? Or tweet about them. D.C. Dalgliesh is the last surviving traditional tartan weaver, where once there were hundreds of mills like us. We're now the only place on earth you'll find tartans of this quality. And we keep alive historic skills developed over generations. So please help spread the word, in any way you can.

Participation in most Scottish activities is not limited to members. If you would like to attend, please feel welcome to do so. Call any of the officers for more information.

Any Scottish group is welcome to a listing on this page. Send me your information and I'll be happy to include it. Address information to: mfrost@nls.net
