Join Gaelic culture enthusiasts Geoffrey and Rebecca-Lynne MacDonald-May for a leisurely stroll along the South West Margaret, a Canadian Heritage River. This area, called Am Braighe by settlers, was once home to many bards, chief among them was the amazingly talented Malcolm Gillis whose songs are still sung Island wide snd beyond. Join for this walk along a level gravel road by the river edge, surrounded by maple sloped mountains. Your hosts will sing some of Malcolms songs and discuss aspects of Gaelic culture and history ( questions welcome). Approximately 2 hours Geoffrey will pass his hat after the walk. PLEASE GATHER AT SCOTSVILLE SCHOOL FOR CRAFTS AT 10 AM. Local contact person for this event is Verna, 902-258-2278 or vernamacm@gmail.com.
