High Society

Scottish Arts Club
In addition to Beth's hill walking around the Scottish countryside and in addition to her volunteering, she has ended up being invited as a guest on a couple of occasions to the Scottish Arts Club. Hoop-de-doo. Good for her.

This sociable members club full of arts enthusiasts and creatives has existed for over 150 years. Sort of exclusive. One invitation came from a good friend; the other invitation came from recently met co-volunteers at St. Cuthbert's Church. She remarked, after both club visits, that she felt energized by the level of intellectual discourse; plenty of well-educated, smart members. The club serves lunch, and members listen to speakers. Beth was struck by the breadth and depth of Scottish history knowledge of the latest speaker.
