EVERYTHING IS BIG IN TEXAS! DON’T MISS THE BIGGEST GATHERING YET, CMA’S DOZENS OF COUSINS 20th ANNIVERSARY GATHERING. The Clan McAlister of America cordially invites you to attend our biennial gathering on July 15-16-17-18, 2010 at Dallas, Texas. Join us in Dallas for fun, entertainment, and many special features. If you have never attended one of our clan gatherings, this would be an excellent year to do so. The planning committee has polished our program, plus added some very special features that can be found only in Dallas. The Crowne Plaza Hotel is offering a very good price (for a big city) of $79 per room, available from July 12 to July 21. Program highlights will include family introductions, the traditional memorial service, a speaker from Family Tree DNA, and an update on clan projects. Of course, our genealogy committee will be bringing all those family records files, including new material gathered from our query page on the internet.

Browse our CMA bazaar full of crafts made by talented relatives or representing our Scottish heritage. Drop by the hospitality suite for refreshment and friendly conversation. Learn more about our ancestral background from our expert genealogists or search for your own elusive ancestors with the help of our excellent genealogy committee. Enjoy the entertainment, including performances by a mariachi band and an award-winning bagpiper, meet McAlisters (of all spellings) from across the country, and thrill to the skirl of bagpipes as we're piped into the banquet hall. We look forward to seeing you in Texas!
