Fergus Scottish Festival Coordinator Elizabeth Bender talks Wee Digital Ceilidh Elora Fergus Podcast

    • 地域情報/トラベル

Today I’m chatting with the Fergus Scottish Festival Coordinator, Elizabeth Bender about the upcoming digital Fergus Scottish Festival & Highland Games.  (Show links: https://bit.ly/2Xx0YIB  ) 
This year would have marked 75 years of tradition in Centre Wellington, but Elizabeth calls this year “74.5” 
:)
On this episode, we chat about the recent tough decisions, what it means for the future of the Festival, plus we get insight for what to expect at this year’s digital celebration, the Wee Digital Ceilidh (pronounced “Kay-lee”)
If you ask Google “What’s a Scottish Ceilidh?” you discover it’s a traditional social gathering.
I asked twice and was told, “...simply means a social visit.” 
The Festival Scottish Festival and Highland Games present this year’s Wee Digital Ceilidh to their faithful patrons, guests, and over four hundred volunteers who contribute their hard work and time year-after-year.  
The result of their efforts has given our community an amazing gift that brings over 24,000 people to Centre Wellington in a single weekend. This year they hope to do the same-- albeit virtually.  
Trusted traditions modernized.
