One hundred thousand welcomes! With three excellent Gala Dinners, it is perhaps time for some reflection, stabilization and renewal of commitment. The Society has a strong tradition of service both to the community at large and to Scots in the area. The main purpose of this newsletter is to inform members, and potential members, of the activities of the Society. This newsletter will be sent out to all members at least twice a year, in the Spring and the Fall.
Annual St. Andrew's Dinner and Gala - 1999
Plans are in hand for our Dinner and Gala to be held on Saturday, 13th November in the Grand Ballroom, Chateau Laurier; Margaret Littlejohn, Gala Chair, and her committee are already busy. Gen John de Chastelain has indicated his willingness to be our Guest of Honour; more details in the Fall Newsletter, by which time tickets will be available. A sell-out is expected this year and Society members will be given priority.
