Burns Supper

The Burns Supper is an annual tribute to the life, works and spirit of the great Scottish poet, Robert Burns (January 25, 1759- July 21, 1796).  It is celebrated traditionally the first Saturday of February. This special night includes traditional Scottish food, the reciting of Burns' "Address to a Haggis", bagpipe performances and dancing.

Each year, one person has the honor of presenting "The Immortal Memory", to bring the life and work of Robert Burns to all the audience in an informative and entertaining way.

At the end of the night, revelers gather in a circle on the dance floor and sing:

“Should auld acquaintance be forgot
and never brought to mind?
Should auld acquaintance be forgot,
and days of auld lang syne?
For auld lang syne, my dear,
for auld lang syne,
we'll take o' cup of kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.”
Robert Burns
