I e mailed the author.... we'll see.

***************************

I just read your article about the problems that the Highlander Band pipe band is having getting their kilts and uniforms. You write that it can cost as much as $1,000 to outfit a band member.

that's certainly true if all of the bands kit is made of imported Scottish wool, but there are other options. If you'd be so kind as to either

A. give my e-mail address to the girl who's the leader of the band,
OR

B. send her this URL: http://www.xmarksthescot.com

I think that I and the online kilt-wearing members at X-marks can show her some MUCH less expensive options in terms of alternative kilt-making materials that she might be able to get the school to fund.

Thanks...
