Welcome! Marilyn Meikle, President
It is my honour to serve as President of the St. Andrew’s Society of Montreal. I have been involved with the Society for the past ten years and remain inspired by our committed volunteers who work tirelessly to bring the very best to our members and friends. If you have landed on our website because you are exploring your Scottish roots, or simply because you are interested in learning more about all things Scottish, I encourage you to visit our SmugMug photo page to see the vibrant events that we host. From big to small, there is something for everyone.
As a charitable society, we are dedicated to the assistance of Montreal’s Scottish community, to education, and to the preservation of Scottish arts and culture. The Outreach section of our website will explain more about our initiatives and how we may be of assistance to you. Our regularly scheduled events have been cancelled as we continue to adhere to measures outlined by the Quebec Government during the COVID-19 pandemic. The safety of our members, friends and the greater community is paramount. We will be cautious in our decisions to hold gatherings again. We will keep you informed of events on our website and social media. We encourage you to consider becoming a member of our Society. Research your roots: you may find out, “You’re more Scottish than you think.” Slainté and keep well. Marilyn Meikle SAS President Marilyn Meikle at the "Highland Heavy" Athletics Clinic
