A message from Sam Johnson, President of the Clan Gunn Society of North America:
Welcome to the CGSNA's website! Whether a Gunn by name, a sept (an associated family name - see the list of septs on this site.), or just someone who enjoys Scottish traditions and fellowship, we welcome you. You'll find a wealth of information about the Clan, its officers and key contacts, as well as the Commissioner in your area that represents the Clan at the many Scottish and Celtic games and events in their region.
In addition to all the useful pages and links of this site, I would like to direct your attention to the following important happenings in 2012:

2012 AGM: The Stone Mountain Highland Games in Atlanta, GA will be the host event this year. It will be held on the weekend of October 19th - 21st. This is the 40th anniversary of the games. I have an inside scoop that a very important "Gunn" from across the pond will be attending this gathering. Mark your calendar and plan to be there for a great time! Details and booking forms will be placed on this site, as well as in the April issue of the Gunn Salute.
Lyon Court Petition: A Petition was lodged at the Lyon Court in December 2011 seeking the convening of a Family Convention to recognize a Chief of Clan Gunn. The Petition pro-poses that the current Commander, Iain Gunn of Banniskirk, be now recognized as Chief. In accordance with the Guidelines regarding the holding of a Family Convention, the Lord Lyon intends to appoint a Supervising Officer in the near future. Stay tuned for updates.
17th International Clan Gunn Gathering: Every three years, Clan Gunn hosts an International Gathering in Scotland. Plans have begun for the 2012 Gathering to be held July 21 - 29, 2012. The formal announcement, locations, itinerary and booking forms are located at the bottom of the home page of this site.
