Burns
Supper 2012
|
27-Jan-12 | In celebration of the 253rd Birthdate of Robert Burns, Scotland's finest literary talent, features an Address to his Immortal Memory followed by toast and replies to the Lassies and Guests. Less formal than the Ball but a great social event all round, nonetheless. Whilst you don't have to be a haggis chomping, whisky guzzling, traditional dancing, Burns buff, it certainly helps!!! The event will start at 7.30PM sharp. | Mandarin Hotel, Makati |
| St Andrew's Ball | Nov-2012 | The main piece of our events calendar is the St Andrew's Ball in celebration of Scotland's patron saint. This year, and for the 58th year running, we will be back at the Polo Club, Makati in November. A traditional night of haggis, whisky and dancing interspersed with the Address to the Haggis, renditions from visiting musicians, the Chieftains Invitational Dance and an exhibition by kids from the British School. A 'Must attend' event! | Manila Polo Club, Makati |
| AGM 2012 |

|
The AGM for 2012 will be announced later in the year. All members are invited to attend so we can establish a representative outcome for the year's activities. | TBD |

| Golf Tournament | It is the intension of the current committee to instigate an annual Golf Tournament in May of each year. This may well be in association with one or other of the other National Associations or Organizations. | ||
| Whisky Tasting | Another new departure for the Society will be a planned Whisky Tasting Evening involving some of the principal suppliers of the 'Uisge Beatha' (Water of Life) as Whisky is affectionately known. We'll keep you posted on this new event. | ||
| Charity Work | Annually, we collect charitable donations from organizations and individuals which we, in turn, pass on to certain projects with which we have an association. Most recently, we made a donation to the repair and upkeep of the St Andrew's School in Pampanga. | ||
