The MacPherson Clan will be hosting the 2017 Midwest Gathering of the Clans at the 50th Anniversary of the Alma Highland Festival and Games. Each year the clans participate in the opening ceremony with a parade of tartans, then retreat to the Clan area to enjoy the remainder of the festival. This year there will be a commemorative passport given to all children attending the festival and we ask clans to kindly participate with this activity by being a special place of interest of the festival.
