| THE
78TH FRASER HIGHLANDERS |
The regiment operates out of the old Garrison Building on Ile
Ste-Helene. It undertakes a number of fund raising activities
which enable it to support various projects and charities. In
addition, the Highlanders hold frequent regimental dinners as
well as an Annual Ball.
Since
1966, students wearing authentic uniforms of the eighteenth
century have performed drills with muskets, cannons, bagpipes,
and drums at the Stewart Museum (the Old Fort, Ile Ste-Helene),
and this has become a major tourist attraction.
Pipers
and drummers have been part of all Scottish events in the
Montreal area for many years.

| THE
ROYAL SCOTTISH COUNTRY DANCE SOCIETY |
|
The Royal Scottish Country Dance Society (founded in Scotland
in 1923) has as its main goal to teach and keep this
traditional dance form vibrant and accessible. Scottish
Country Dance is the traditional ballroom dancing of
Scotland, and currently comprises a repertoire of approximately
13,000 dances that are either traditional or in-the-tradition.
Weddings and social events in Scotland often include
some of these dances as a matter of course.
The
Montreal Branch (established in 1957) is part of an international
community of about 25,000 members and offers
classes for adults in the Montreal area, Cornwall, ON and
Vermont, USA. In addition, we host regular dance parties,
an annual ball and workshops. A welcoming community of dancers
of all ages will be found at any of our classes. Most classes
can accommodate dancers at any level, however, the basic
technique class is the best entry point for newcomers.
