What we’re about
First and foremost, otters are playful. So, Clann Otter aspires to honor our chosen mascot by filling our activities with play! No matter what else we may do, we aim to enjoy ourselves while gathering and supporting the Scottish/Scottish-American community in New England sharing our love for all things Scottish.
Clann Otter meetup is open to anyone who would enjoy a hang to appreciate and celebrate the best parts of Scottish culture especially as it resides in New England. We welcome all of the Scottish diaspora and our Celtic cousins from Asturias, Brittany, Cornwall, Galicia, Ireland, Isle of Man, and Wales.
We also celebrate sharing all cultures so it matters not your heritage, come share it with us! We do not just tolerate or appreciate diversity of cultures but we celebrate the diversity. There is no background test for membership. Anyone of any heritage who has an interest in sharing Scottish culture is welcome!
Our main purpose is to socialize and have fun enjoying all things Scottish. We hope to grow and connect the Scots in New England community for the good of the community. We also will connect with other Scottish-themed meet-ups with ours, such as by getting them to gather at the NH Highland Games, Maine Highland Games & Scottish Festivals, Scottish concerts and pub music sessions, and other events. We may also connect with Scottish university alumni clubs in New England to grow our community.
