For non-members, please spend some time browsing through these pages. You are invited to explore the benefits of membership and you may find your missing cousins and many friends you haven’t met yet. Make plans to, and attend one or several of the many Highland Games held at locations throughout the United States and Canada. There are numerous other Scottish events held at many different locations throughout the world as well as the USA and Canada, such as Burns Night, usually in February and Saint Andrews Dinners in November. Let’s not forget TARTAN DAY on the 6th of April every year. Get involved with family and learn from whence you came and get to know other FERGUSSON and septs* of FERGUSSON.

Yours aye,
