While I appreciate your desire to flock with birds of a feather, somehow I don't think you're hitting the right notes, here. I'm confused about your objective. Is it to form the Talequah Scottish Society or to conjure up a rabble? If it is the former, then your plan might work better if you were doing it as advertising for, say, a St. Andrews Society event, and you are the charter (and so far, only) members of the club.
If it is the latter, then I have to say your approach sounds almost - and forgive me here, because I cannot think of a less provocative word - fetishistic. For as many people as there are in this area where I live who wear kilts on a regular basis, I have to say that whenever I strap one on and go about my business, I expect that I will be the only one anyone, including myself, will see in a kilt that day. If someone witnesses me being myself and gets the idea that he, too, would like to wear a kilt, it will not be because I have been out proselytizing. I find a greater comfort in knowing my friends can give a little shrug and accept me in my own unique plumage.
Regards,

At any moment you must be prepared to give up who you are today for who you could become tomorrow.
