Calling all craftsmen!!
I am involved with Clan Lamont Society of North America. This is an association dedicated to the friendship and community of Clan Lamont. It also is a place for those who want to learn and preserve its history to gather.
The home of clan Lamont is Castle Toward. This castle was sacked by Clan Campbell in the 1600?s. The lands containing the ruins were sold when the clan chief moved to Australia. The land has pass through several custodians over the years.
The lands have pass to a realty agency that wishes to sell of the land piecemeal. The ruins are in danger. CLSNA has done several projects over the years to raise money for the preservation of various clan holdings to maintain its history. I?ve made a couple knives that were raffled off to aid in these restoration efforts.
Now they have put out a call to all members to help were they can to preserve their history. CLSNA is going to be raising money to by the land as it comes available. We are going to be gathering donations of various craftsmen to raffle and auction off to raise funds toward these ends.
With Alex?s permission I am asking if any of you who wish to and are in a position to help please contact me via PM or email.
Thank for your time,
Jim
