Scots and other enthusiasts all over the world will celebrate Robbie Burns Day near his birthday. In the North of Seven area it shall be done at the Lions Hall in Northbrook on Saturday Jan 23. The Cloyne & District Historical Society who bring you this event, are particularly careful to not leave out any fun-filled traditions. Tartan will be worn; pipers will play; prime rib will be served; Scotch will be consumed; Auld Lang Syne will be sung; and the lads will dance with the lassies. Once again, the highlight of the evening shall be Gordon Sparks plunging his knife into the haggis as he addresses it. The tickets are limited in number and are $35, with a charitable receipt for part of it. The piper shall greet you as early as 5pm for a 6pm sitting. To reserve your place, call Ian Brumell at 613-336-2203 or Gordon Sparks at 613-336-0157
