The Scottish North American Community Conference (SNACC) will be held in downtown Alexandria, VA, a close-in suburb of Washington, DC, on Friday, December 4th—the day before the Annual Scottish Christmas Walk Parade—largest Scottish-American parade in the USA, which many clan societies and other Scottish heritage groups always attend. The SSA is a member of COSCA which co-sponsors these event and COSCA officers will be on hand to meet and greet folks.
Now in its 24th year, SNACC will again feature speakers and panel discussions about a broad array of Scottish heritage and culture themes and topics. Some presenters will attend the event live from Scotland, via Zoom.
Speakers will include Andrew Morrison, Lord Dunrossil, from our Advisory Board, who is also Vice-Convenor of the Standing Council of Scottish Chiefs (SCSC). He will be joined for a panel discussion by a number of young heirs to chiefships. In addition, Charles, Lord Bruce, the new Convenor of the SCSC, has also been invited to deliver remarks about his organization’s priorities for the new year. Plus the Lord Provost of Dundee, in town for the Xmas Walk Parade the next day, will stop by and address us.
See the 2026 conference program tab, at the top of the home page on the SNACC Website, for the full program, plus the registration tab, at the far left. (Go to http://www.scottishleadershipconference.com ) Tickets are now available and reasonably priced.
