Three years ago the New Brunswick Scottish-Cultural Association embarked
upon a journey to discover our Scottish heritage and history through
initiative called the New Brunswick Scottish Portal Project. The goal of
this project was to tell the untold stories of the Scots who came to
New Brunswick in the 19 century. A committee was established with
representation from around the province. Many wonderful stories were
discovered and some surprises along the way. That project has come to an
end and all the research conducted over the three years has been pulled
together and is being readied to be uploaded to the site. As a result
we are ready to launch Phase I of the project!
It gives me
great pleasure to invite you on behalf of the New Brunswick
Scottish-Cultural Association and Fredericton Society of Saint Andrew to
the pre-launch dinner party of the NB Scottish History website on
November 22, 2014 at the Fredericton Inn, 1315 Regent Street in
Fredericton. As a financial supporter of the project your evening will
begin with a reception at 5:30 pm followed by dinner at 7 pm. We have a
jammed packed evening planned for you with with traditional haggis,
highland dancing, piping and so much more. The high light of the
evening of course will be the sneak peak of the new website and what the
site has to offer the public when it goes live on November 30th.
Tickets are $55.00 each and must be purchased by November 17th. Please keep
in mind tickets are limited so please purchase yours early.
The
pre-launch is being held in conjunction with the Fredericton Society of
Saint Andrew’s Feast of Saint Andrew. This will be a traditional Feast
of Saint Andrew’s as a result the dress code for the evening is
Scottish attire or business dress.
Tickets can be purchased
through our special
ticket purchase centre . All sales are final
and there will not be any refunds because meals are ordered and paid for
in advance. The deadline to purchase tickets is November 17th
Once
payment has been received, you will receive an email confirmation. No
tickets will be mailed and will be made available at the door.
