The Fortrose Caledonian Society was established in 1879, and the annual sports are held on New Year's Day, at the Fortrose Recreation Ground. The gathering is very popular, and, in 1904, about £30 was distributed in prize money. The officers for 1904 are Messrs R. A. Elliot (president), and K. G. McKenzie (secretary and treasurer), who are supported by a strong committee.
