Clan Watson in the USA

We are slowly rebuilding our presence in the USA, and 2023 is an exciting year for us as it will the first time ever that this new Clan Watson Society has representation at some of the highland games and celtic festivals!

We now have representatives in Ohio, Texas, West Virginia and New York City and are looking for more, so if you would like our support to represent the clan, please get in touch! Our aim is to grow our numbers so that we can start to develop regional chapters, organise a Watson presence at key events and, ultimately, organise our own events, but to do that, we need people willing to volunteer and people willing to attend!

Our representatives will be appearing at the following events this year, and we are looking to add more:
