This year's Robbie Burns Luncheon was significant for two reasons: it was the 25th Anniversary of CM Greater Vancouver's Robbie Burns Luncheon and was held on Robbie Burns actual birthdate. Thanks to Bill for planning the first luncheon and for his many years of organizing this event.
We were lucky to welcome Erica, Soprano, and Lorna, Accompanist, for the first time and the return of the Fraser River Fiddlers for our entertainment. Everyone enjoyed the Scottish roast beef buffet with haggis and "taters & neeps" along with piping and traditional Scottish toasts. Neil from Richmond won the basket raffle with a Peter May coffee table book on the Hebrides along with other Scottish goodies. Second prize of a $25 gas card went to Effie.
