   We now have our first sponsor/advertiser! Our own member #63, Mark Wardlaw, has a remodeling business in Bowie, Maryland.

This is a great way to get your advertising word out and have a nice advertising tax deduction at the same time. Your ad will run on our website as well as in our newsletters.

Cost for an ad is $50, payable to the CWA. Money will help further our ability to offer you more activities in the future, such as we have done in the past with our tartan and coat-of-arms. We are now able to have a booth in local Highland Games across the country. We have a nice large banner with our logo, tartan and arms. Local members in each area are encouraged to get involved with their highland games and participate in our booth.

Thanks, Mark! You can visit Mark at his website: www.bnvhome.com

Thanks to Mark Wardlaw, too, for taking our Wardlaw Tartan to the 'Kirkin' o' the Tartans' at the Washington National Cathedral in Wash., DC April 19, 2008.

He said that our Wardlaw Tartan is now blessed and that the ceremony was beautiful! There were some 60-75 clans represented! The St. Andrews Society's own Pipe & Drum Corps was perfect! Maybe next year many of our members can plan on attending this wonderful ceremony!

 
Our Member Mark Wardlaw is a sponsor of Scots4Tots

     The Mid-Atlantic Scots4Tots is a 501(c) (3) non-profit charitable organization that focuses on the physical and emotional well being of children and families in the Mid-Atlantic region.
     The Scots4Tots organization focuses on supporting the entire family, as everyone shares the emotional stress of an illness. That’s why we are proud to be affiliated with Children’s National Medical Center of Washington D.C. and the Walter Reed Medical Center. By supporting and enriching the lives of the children, the family benefits by receiving a much needed break from the stress and anguish that too often becomes part of caring for a loved one while in a hospital setting. 
     Whether the child is hospitalized with an illness or the child of a soldier being treated at Walter Reed, the Mid-Atlantic Scots4Tots recognizes the strength of family, and the healing powers of the family-unit. 
     It is our mission to reach out to these family members.
     Often times, during the rush to get to a wounded soldiers bedside, family members forget to pack the day-to-day items needed while living out of their suitcase. We would like to help by providing first care packages that will include items such as toiletries, personal hygiene items and spare clothing to families who’s loved one is being treated at Walter Reed Medical Center. 
     The Mid-Atlantic Scots4Tots also supports, through our donations, the New Horizons Cultural Arts Program at Children’s National Medical Center. They bring cultural arts and animal visitation to over 10,000 patients annually and offer art, music and dance, allowing the children to let their imaginations roam beyond hospital boundaries during challenging moments in their young lives.
     Our group also sponsors arts and crafts shows, demonstrations of Scottish music and dancing, military drills, parades, and other activities designed to promote hope, happiness, and healing among those facing difficult circumstances.
     Visit us online at  HYPERLINK "http://www.scots4tots.org" www.scots4tots.org and share in our goal of making children smile, always mindful that our success is measured one smile at a time!
