    I am a Clan Cunningham Armiger based in Scotland and as such I am Regional Director for Scotland to Clan Cunningham International. Very few Scottish games have clan villages so my workload is only one or two tents per year.
    I have co-hosted at Clan Cunningham tents at Ventura Seaside Games in 2009 and Loon Mountain Games in 2010 and also attended the Victoria BC Games in 2012.
    In July 2016 I am scheduled to co-host a Clan Cunningham gathering here in Scotland.

    I didn't respond to the survey question because there's not an option that fits me.

    I would participate in a clan society if one existed for Clan MacQueen.

    I was considering starting one myself a year or so ago, but I'm afraid health problems have prevented me from becoming that involved.

    Maybe when I've recovered fully...

    I a bit late for the survey.

    I just recently agreed to be the Tennessee and Kentucky Convener for the House of Gordon USA.

    I will be hosting a tent at the Glasgow, Ky and Middle Tennessee games this year.

    I am looking forward to making new friends and boosting membership.

    Sorry to be a wet blanket, but I had to tick the bottom choice.

    Back in the late 1970s/early 1980s I had the enthusiasm of the newbie and most of my life revolved around the local Scottish community: I was going to RSCDS classes three nights a week and to dances a couple times a month, I played in a pipe band, played in the local Strathspey & Reel Society, was taking Scottish Gaelic at University, and was a member of Clan Donald USA.

    Over the years I dialed back my involvement, and for many years being in the Pipe Band scene has been it for me.

    I'm a convener for the Clan MacIntyre Association, and am a past Membership Secretary. I used to host a tent at 4 games a year, but some of the Scottish/clan events have declined or closed; so, I usually host a tent for 2 annual games, and visit other CMA conveners throughout the country, if I can combine that activity with another.
