NEWS & UPDATES

The 2004-05 Session got off to a good start with a successful Dinner and Ceilidh for our Senior Citizen members. It was held in Westerton Hall on Saturday 4th September.
The company was refreshed, dined and entertained. Between times everyone enjoyed some gossiping.
Angus McLean played his pipes, and our main singer was Archie McLean, aided by Past Presidents of the GIA, Dougie Gillespie, Milda Martin, and Hugh Smith with humorous recitations. The President himself contributed, and the accompaniments were provided by his wife Norma.
