Adam Lovell and Chuck Mirabile set up the clan tent smack dab in the middle of the Clan Row. Since it’s grown to 30 feet, it made quite an impression. We’re happy to report that the increased size allowed for a greater display while still providing room for Family and friends to relax. We had many visitors, and were able to send a few off with a new found excitement about their Clan along with a membership application.
New for this year, Clan Douglas sponsored one of the trophies for the Scottish dancers. We were proud to present the award for the nine years old and under category. We plan for this to be a tradition going forward, and encourage the other Regents to do the same at their games.
On a lighter note Chuck came in second in the Bonnie Knees contest. (The fix was in) These events are always a real blast and everyone has a great time.
All in all, despite the heat, it was a great time and we look forward to next year’s festivities.

The following regions are in need of a Regent to represent CDSNA at local Highland/Scottish/Celtic Games and Festivals:
Alaska
Florida (South)
Hawaii
Iowa
Maryland
New Mexico
Duties of a Regent (as described in the 2009 CDSNA Bylaws):
Section 1. Regents are appointed by the Vice President/Coordinator of regents to
supervise members and activities in specific geographical areas.
Duties of Regents include public relations, promotion of Clan Douglas activities
and recruitment of members. Represent the Society at Games within the area and
maintain contact with members.
If you live in any of the regions without a Regent and have a desire to serve the members of Clan Douglas, please contact our CDSNA Vice-President and make your desire known. After all, how will anyone find our Douglas Family, if we aren’t where they are?
