The "Caledonian Scottish Dancers" was formed in 1966 with the purpose of high quality presentation and preservation of Scottish music and dance. They perform Highland, National as well as some of the "Lesser Known" dances. All costumes are imported from Scotland and feature a colorful array of authentic tartans.
The group has appeared at numerous festivals, Conventions and cultural events throughout the Midwest United States. They have also performed in Scotland during the 1987 Edinburgh Festival and the 1990 World Pipe Band Championships in Glasgow.
The dancers represented Wisconsin at the 1993 Cultural Festival in Chiba, Japan and in June, 1996 represented the United States at the International Fokelore Festival in Montreal, Canada.
A successful summer tour of Western Scotland and The Isles of Mull and Iona was completed in 1999.
In 2006 the dancers again traveled to Scotland and the Isle of Arran. They performed at the Robert Burns Cottage and Heritage Center near Ayr and at The Isle of Arran Distillers, Ltd. Arran
