The theme for Ayrwaves 2008 will be The Gathering of the Clans, with subcamps named after various Scottish Clans, which will be displayed on the subcamp neckie. The theme is also reflected in the Camp Song, The Gathering of the Clans.
The Gathering of the Clans
Chorus
The clans are gathering, gathering, gathering,
Thro' the deep glens and from faraway lands;
From cottage and shieling wild music is stealing,
Horo for the gathering of the clans.
1
The pipers are sounding in lowland and highland,
The laddies sae brave and the lassies sae braw,
They come from the hill and they come from the island,
and some from across the wide ocean and a'.
2
Then send us your stalwarts you wild Macintoshes,
And warriors bold of the Roses for bye,
Come gather you champions down from the Grampians,
come frae the Cuillins and come from Milngavie.
