What We Do
As an organization it is our goal to preserve and educate all who are interested in our
Scottish heritage and culture. The House of Gordon has a proud heritage and history in
Scotland and throughout the world. The Scottish people have given the world so much
from the very foundations of our American freedoms to a myriad of inventions. The
Gordons have played a large part in the history and culture of Scotland, America, and
many other major countries of the world. We support the Gordon Highlander Museum,
offer a scholarship for the Scottish Arts and do charitable works in our communtiy.

You will find us at several Highland Games and Celtic Heritage Festivals throughout the
year (see our schedule of events). Our Convener, David Todd, and the Board of the
House of Gordon Virginia, invite you to join us at the Gordon Tent and have fun
celebrating our common heritage as an extended family!
