LEARN GAELIC THE FUN & EASY WAY!

Looking for members who are interested in learning Scottish Gaelic.
Just a few hours a month online & then once a month in person meeting
to learn this beautiful language and to keep it alive!

Learning Gaelic is fun and simple. Lauren Rhiannon offers bite-sized lessons on her youtube page. Here she says the word, offers it phonetic spelling and slowly says the word in Gaelic three times. Her charming personality makes learning fun!

In this video she is showing us how to say "WELCOME" (PLEASE WAIT FOR VIDEO TO LOAD)

Appreciation To Lauren Rhiannon!

IT'S EASY TO BECOME A MEMBER!

Since the program "OUTLANDER", American's interest in Scotland has grown by leaps and bounds!  Is it the language, the beauty, the romance, the folklore, or the cute highland coos?

It matters not, if you love Scotland, and all she has to offer, then you belong with us!

And the best part is, you do not have to have Scottish blood to do so.

The Kern County Scottish Society’s mission is to bring a wee bit of Scotland to Kern County, California by celebrating and promoting Scottish heritage, culture and traditions through education and social events.

 

It is a great way to learn & experience some history, a language, a dance, and have fun doing so. You will meet others with the same interests and will make friends easily as we are a friendly lot!   Join today or renew when it come time to do so!
