After supper everyone went downstairs to our Ministry Center.  Our supper club drawing was for the unique and very unofficial sign above, which reads "Scottish Parking Only - All Others Will Be Kilt."  Peter Wilkie presented it to the winner.

Our entertainment was presented by the Thistle & Heather Highland Dancers of Chicagoland.  This is a group of Scottish dancers, primarily girls, age 4 to adult, directed and taught by Nancy Strolle.  The group that performed was composed of very talented girls age 6 through 14 who performed a number of different dances.  They compete successfully at the local, national, and international level as well as perform around the metropolitan area.
