Meet The OHIO COMMISSIONERS
Commissioners - act as representatives of the Clan Campbell Society, North America (CCSNA). They are a resource for society members and non-members alike. If you have a question about local Scottish festivals, Highland attire, clan genealogy, clan history or things Scottish, they are the people to ask. If they don’t know, they will put you in touch with someone who does. The most contact people generally have with commissioners are at regional Highland games.
Please make sure to visit us at the Clan Campbell tent, which is an excellent opportunity to spend time asking questions. As society members, remember that the CCSNA tent is yours. Come by to visit, get out of the weather or to drop off items you don’t wish to carry around. For anyone wishing to get involved as a volunteer, please contact one of us below. All that is needed is a willingness to learn and a desire to have a great time with fellow members of Clan Campbell.
See you at the games!
