Sláinte

to the Memphis Scottish Society's website!

We exist to promote an understanding in “things Scottish,” through programs at our Monthly Meetings, and support for individual’s studies of Scottish heritage, history, and culture.

Come and meet us at 6:00 PM on the second Monday of the month for the Monthly Meeting at Jason’s Deli at Highland & Poplar. Each meeting includes a presentation of Scottish interest. There are also several informal gatherings throughout the year, such as the Fall Ceilidh (party) and Spring Picnic.

The highlight each year is the Burns Nicht Supper, a celebration of Scotland’s poet, Robert Burns on the Saturday in late January closest to his birthday on the 25th.

Details on our Events are posted on this website as plans progress.


Thanks
Joe Lyle
President

Monthly Meeting

May 2012

Image
Calling all Elliots (and of course other Scots)!  The May meeting topic is "The Curse of the Elliots" and will be presented by former Scottish Society President, Dr. Ben Kemker.  Here's a little teaser:  It seems that someone in Clan Elliot ticked off a member of the clergy, so he wrote a curse on the entire Elliot Clan.....
Join us at Jason's Deli on Monday, May 14 and find out all about the curse!
