Booking of Clan Scott Events Has Begun

The registration for the various limited enrollment events at the Clan Scott Gathering in Scotland this Sept has begun. For more information get the full list of events at the Bowhill site
http://www.bowhill.org/public/news/homecoming20091

Actual booking of the events is through a private ticket selling site that has other Scottish events listed. Using Clan Scott in the search box at the top above the map of Scotland will sort the events involved. If you don't sort them you need to know the name of the venue for each event to find each of the Clan Scott events. Each venue is listed in the drop down menu. Most of the events are listed under Bowhill House - Bowhill Estate or Bowhill Theatre, but other events are listed under three other venues called
  1. Marketplace, Selkirk Events;
  2. Victoria Hall, Selkirk Events and
  3. Abbotsford House, Melrose, Borders
Just do the search for Clan Scott on the registration site and everything will nicely sort as a list of events.

One item requires no registration. A free will offering will be received at the service.
