Bonnie Brae Scottish Games Return to Central New Jersey on June 1, 2002

SUMMIT, NJ - The Clan Currie Society, based in Summit, New Jersey return to the popular Bonnie Brae Scottish Games on Saturday, June 1. The games will be held at Bonnie Brae School in Millington, New Jersey.

"Clan Currie is thrilled to be returning to this outstanding highland gathering" said Robert Currie, of the Clan Currie Society. "I think of Bonnie Brae as our clan’s home games and we’re looking forward to greeting Clansfolk from far and wide".

Currie was part of the original planning committee for the first Bonnie Brae Games and served as Director of Piping and Drumming until 1992. In recognition of his efforts in establishing the games, he was named Honorary Chieftain for the 1993 gathering.

Produced by East of the Hebrides Entertainments, the games will feature traditional piping, highland dance, and athletic competitions. There will also be performances by Hadrian’s Wall and Gerry Timlin among other performers.

For further information and tickets, contact East of the Hebrides Entertainments at (610) 825-7268, or visit their website at www.eohebrides.com.

Founded in 1992, the Clan Currie Society is a non-profit organization, which promotes awareness and understanding of the history and contributions of the Clan Currie and Scottish history and culture. Most recently, the clan participated in the celebration of National Tartan Day by sponsoring "Home and Away: Highland Departures and Returns" - a touring exhibition on loan to the Ellis Island Immigration Museum from the National Museums of Scotland.
