The 47th annual Clan gathering was held on May 29th this year, with an AGM and lunch in Garlieston village hall, followed by a visit to Sorbie Tower and a dinner and ceilidh dance in the evening.
Forty four people attended the AGM, including two clan members from Tasmania, two from America, and six from Northern Ireland. After lunch about 50 people, led by the clan piper, gathered at Sorbie Tower, which had been decked with flags. The dinner and ceilidh dance in the evening was held at the Crown Hotel in Newton Stewart.
Next morning there was a meeting of the Sorbie Tower sub-committee at Kirkdale, to discuss the possibility of replacing the roof and restoring the tower.
