: Hi, Diana.

: I've never heard of National Tartan Day, but I have had the pleasure(?) of eating haggis at many Burns dinners where my father used to play bagpipes. Enjoy the celebration if you happen to attend. (And enjoy that haggis, too.)

: : A quick note to everyone that April 6th is National Tartan Day. Good way to remember the Camerons.

: : Anyone going to participate in a local event?

: : Got Haggis??!!

: : Diana:)

The US Senate passed a resolution in 1998 establishing the day. I recall that it also falls on a date in 1328 (? give or take a year) when there was a treaty signed at Arboreth (??). There is info on the WEB.

Nips equal TURnips; Taties equal Potatoes.

Thanks for asking.

Diana
