The parade was preceded by a piper followed by the flag of the United States and the Saltire. An enthusiastic and entertaining Ode to the Haggis was presented and then the Haggis was served with the traditional neeps and tatties. Following dinner the Society members and their guests were entertained by Ms. Lesley Craigie, soprano, presenting Scottish folk songs. The evening was concluded with the installation of the 2015-2016 officers. A special thanks to out-going President Patrick Foy for his dedicated service.
