Let's hope that the organizers consider the families at home, and welcoming the families afar... I feel that it put a bad taste in the mouth of many Scots, to be excluded by virtue of no communications with the locally based clans... I would like to see an event where the likes of Jock and Redshanks, et al, are anxiously awaiting their clans Disporia, and feeling like they are just as much about the Homecoming, as Scotland as a whole.
I would enjoy a family gathering of the Cleghorn/Claghorn/Gleghorns, and learn the family history from the locals themselves.. That would definately be an event I would hate to miss.
