Hug A Scot Today! National Tartan Day |

Dear ;
If you know a Scot, or person of Scottish Heritage in America give them a shout today and wish them a Happy Tartan Day. The rumor is the day was established to try and make up to our friends in the Scottish community for all the high jinks the Irish enjoy on St Patrick's Day, and the year around dearth of Scottish Pubs.... but I am sure the 6 Million Americans of Scottish descent would say differently!
Watch out for roving bands of Pipers!

This annual celebration of the contribution of Scots to the development and growth of America is celebrated locally by the Scottish Society in Dallas at an annual Ceilidh, and in Frisco this weekend the Rough Riders open the new season for the 4th time with Wear Your Kilt to the Game night!
So, don a cap or a scarf, put on a little plaid that has colors other than Burberry, and stop out for a glass of Scotch - Whiskies and Beers both! Read Below How To Join The Scottish Society of Dallas!
And for the non-Scottish amongst us, its still a great night to step out and enjoy a visit with friends and community! Trinity Hall Allen will be hosting our weekly Pub Quiz Trivia tonight at 7:30 PM, with teams from local businesses and offices competing for bragging rights - and prizes too!

ONE LAST THING.... OSCAR MAYER WEINER MOBILE SIGHTING! You know the song, you've see the pictures, bring the kids along to see the Mobile in person! They are planning a visit to Mockingbird Station tomorrow to shoot a video commercial, perhaps if you practice the song and wear something really noticeable, they may ask you to be in it! Of course you could just come and have your picture taken with it behind you too!
Cheers,
