Sinclair 2000
The
Clan Sinclair Chief, Malcolm Caithness,
has invited Sinclairs to assemble in Scotland the week of 30 July 2000.
Clan Gunn
has an assembly in Caithness
the previous week so
the intervening Sunday, 30 July, will be an overlap for the two clans to meet.
There are apparently two interleaved schedules for the U.S.A. and Canadian
groups, so for details it is best to look at the paper newsletters,
Roslin O' Roslin for Canada
and Yours Aye for U.S.A..
Malcolm Caithness has also made available
a schedule online
He has written in Yours Aye that
``I am planning that we should all be together in London and Edinburgh.''

``Many wonderful events and places are being
arranged for including the visiting of
Castle Mey
(in Caithness),
Rosslyn Chapel
and
Castle
and to
Orkney.
I would think that the main website will eventually carry more information
on this. I too wonder where we will all stay?''

``Following a lovely lunch, we were piped to the meeting room, where we
were informed of the year 2000 gathering - starting with a reception at
the House of Lords in London, train trip to Edinburgh, visit to
Rosslyn,
and on to Caithness for the Halkirk Games.
From there, optional tours
are also available to castles and ancient monuments and to
Orkney.
If you participated from beginning to end, it would take 10 days!''
