I wouldn't be too hard on what is, after all, a voluntary society with no paid staff to run it. As far as someone not showing up at an event goes, sometimes life intervenes at the last moment (as happened to the Clan MacMillan tent at the Greenville Scottish Games in 2008), and sometimes the wrong people are tasked with the wrong jobs.

Since you are a member of your clan society, why not grab the bull by the horns, and set up a Clan Sutherland table right next to the Gunns at the next event you attend?
