The Objects of the Society

To cultivate and strengthen the true Celtic ties of family, the spirit of kin and clanship, and the promotion of friendly and social intercourse between members of the clan.

To encourage and to provide grants of money for the preservation, for the benefit of the Nation, of buildings and places of historic interest and having a connection with Clan Menzies and recognized by The National Trust for Scotland as worthy of preservation.

To preserve the history, traditions, arts, antiquities and relics of the Clan.

To render financial assistance to any member of The Clan Menzies, whether members of the Society or not, who may be in straitened circumstances.

To encourage the wearing of Highland dress.

The Gathering

There has been an annual Gathering held every year since 1957 when the parents of our present Chief, David Menzies of Menzies, held the first meeting and resurrected the Menzies Clan Society. This meeting took the decision to buy the Castle.
