(Lander, WY) – The Wind River Scottish Society hosted the 2022 Robert Burns Supper at the Lander Senior Center Saturday night, and according to event organizer Margaret ‘Maggie’ Appleby as well as many attendees, this was one of the smaller turnouts the event has had in years.
Despite fewer event-goers than normal, the folks who showed up enjoyed an evening brimming with Scottish culture.
After the Lander Volunteer Fire Department (LVFD) Pipe Band performed the “Parade of the Haggis” and the Selkirk Grace was recited, a potluck of Scottish cuisine was served.
After dinner was served, the crowd was treated to readings of various Scottish poems and toasts.
The night concluded with closing remarks, as well as renditions of ‘Amazing Grace,’ and the Robert Burns penned ‘Auld Lang Syne.’
