Clan MacMillan North Central States
Clan MacMillan North Central States (CMNCS) is a branch of Clan MacMillan International (CMI) including Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, Missouri, Iowa and the Dakotas. Our mission is to create awareness among our clanspeople of their history, their Clan and other MacMillans through Highland and Celtic games, social events and those modes of communication available to us. Below see photos from some of our branch activities including the 2012 Clan MacMillan Society of North America Gathering.
