Genealogy Society to hold Irish, Scotish picnic
Fáilte roimh chách (all are
welcome) to attend the
Wednesday, Aug.16, Siuslaw
Genealogy Society picnic as
they celebrate Irish/Scottish
heritage. The shenanigans will
begin at 4:30 p.m. at the Elks
Lodge RV Park Recreation
Hall on Mercer Lake Road.
Join them as they learn a wee
bit about Irish/Scottish her-
itage.
Hamburgers, buns and fun
will be provided. Attendees are
encouraged to bring their own
drinks, a side dish and sense of
humor to share. Silverware,
plates, cups and napkins will be
available thanks to the Master
Recyclers of Florence, but
attendees should bring appro-
priate serving dishes, utensils
and containers for leftovers.
Bagpiper Tom Shine will
start the merriment. He has
been a piper for over 40 years.
He started learning to play the
bagpipes in Washington DC
under the guidance of Sandy
Jones, Pipe Major of the U.S.
Air Force Pipe Band. In 1970

Rick Lang and Tom Burns in 2014.
Tom joined the Washington
Scottish Pipe Band.
The
self-proclaimed
“Wandering Piper” has been
playing in Oregon since 1979.
He has traveled throughout the
world bringing bagpipe music
to thousands. He hopes to be
joined by fellow piper, Rick
Lang.
Tom will be followed by
Scottish/Irish trivia, recollec-
tions, swapping of tales and
general Craic (fun, enjoyment,
abandonment, and light hearted
mischief). Prizes will be
awarded for trivia champion
and the best “tall tale”
Irish/Scottish story.
According to the U.S.
Census Bureau, 34.5 million
Americans list their heritage as
either primarily or partially
Irish. That number is, inciden-
tally, seven times larger than
the population of Ireland itself
(4.68 million). Irish is the sec-
ond-most common ancestry
among Americans, falling just
behind German.
The census also states that
nearly 12 percent of Oregon’s
population has Irish ancestry.
In Lane County, 23 percent are
Irish and in Florence, 18.1 per-
cent are Irish.
RSVP is requested for the
event. Call Pat at 541-991-
0885, or Jacquie at 541-999-
5460 for more information.
