They were accompanied by\u00a0 groups of members on tours around the city visiting Seaton Park and Duthie Park where they enjoyed the beautiful gardens and viewed two of the forty different 6 foot hare sculptures which are on display throughout Aberdeen and the north of Scotland as part of the &#8216;Big Hop- Wild in Art&#8217; trail in aid of Clan Cancer Support.\u00a0 Stained glass windows, rescued and restored by our club in 1971 to mark our club&#8217;s Golden Jubilee, renovated in 2004 to celebrate our 75th anniversary and on permanent display in the Winter Gardens at the Duthie Park, were much admired. The visitors enjoyed views of the newly refurbished Union Terrace Gardens, paid a visit to St. Machar&#8217;s Cathedral where they attended an organ recital, and spent some time in the charming 200 year old fishing village of Footdee, locally known as &#8216;Fittie&#8217;. A group enjoyed afternoon tea at the city&#8217;s Art Gallery when Soroptimist items were gifted to our club president, and a welcome meal was held in a local hotel.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_media_grid grid_id=&#8221;vc_gid:1692114368523-3f329335-0be7-1&#8243; include=&#8221;5635,5672,5650&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_media_grid grid_id=&#8221;vc_gid:1692114319701-efcfdec0-214f-0&#8243; include=&#8221;5627,5671,5632&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] During the summer months club members welcomed two Canadian Soroptimists to the&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":12,"featured_media":5671,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5624","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>A Scottish Welcome to Canadian Soroptimists | SI Aberdeen A Scottish Welcome to Canadian Soroptimists | News | Blog | Events | SI Aberdeen<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"SI Aberdeen : Blog &amp; News : A Scottish Welcome to Canadian Soroptimists : Keep up to date with the latest news, articles and events from the Soroptimists of SI Aberdeen .
