As every year in July, our clan chief called for a clan meeting at the Highland Games in Lochearnhead. And this year we from Germany were there with a large group. But before we went to the “Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park” in Lochearnhead, we met in Inveraray on Loch Fyne.

At the beginning of the year we decided to donate a "Memory Bench" for Donald MacLaren. This idea was supported by the family and the “Clan MacLaren Society” from the start. Unfortunately, it took until July 21, 2024 until this bench could finally be set up in the desired location.
