Hi Folks,

I have been in correspondence with some of the Scottish Country Dancers and their plans to try to organize some dances during some of the NTIF band performances for Saturday, March 3.


Here's an excerpt from a post on the DSCD Yahoo group:

=======================================
". . .The Dallas Scottish Country Dancers will have a booth set up [next to the Clan McPherson tent] ...Please stop by and find it before Saturday evening as that will be the meeting place prior to our invasion of the fountain area!

"Any volunteers to stay in the booth for an hour or so would be
greatly appreciated! (I am not above using guilt for this. Come'on;
I am a single girl and need to get my fix of kilted men, so a little
help would be nice;-) ).

"The Shannon Stage (the stage in the fountain area)will host the
Blarney Brothers @ 8:15, the Glengarry Bhoys @ 9:30, and yummy
Needfire @ 10:45...so be prepared to dance your ghillies off! "
. . .
===================

So the net plan is to meet at the DSCD booth / tent around 8:00 PM. You're certainly welcome to drop by earlier in the day and introduce yourselves . . . they're a friendly crew. You can say you know Mark through XMarks . . . and they'll immediately offer you their condolences!!

My plans are a bit indefinite . . . I will be in East Texas in the morning, but back in Dallas early afternoon, so I'll probably make it to NTIF between 3:00 and 4:00 PM. I can hook up with some of you then. You can PM me and we can make specific plans.


Regards,
Mark
