Apologies if this has been covered before. I know there will be no trains to stadium on WC match days but will there still be trains running as normal from Providence to Boston on non-match days? Thinking of heading to baseball match day after first Scotland game (14th June).

The Providence Tartan Army has announced a donation of $6,500 to the Rhode Island Highlanders following a series of successful fundraising efforts.

The donation recognises the important role the Rhode Island Highlanders play in preserving and promoting Scottish heritage throughout Rhode Island and the wider New England region. Through traditional Scottish music, dance, and educational outreach, the organisation helps keep Gaelic culture and values alive for future generations while entertaining audiences with its renowned Pipe Band performances.

Providence Tartan Army spokesperson Gregor Cowan said:

“As lovers of all things Scotland, our group felt it was important to support the Rhode Island Highlanders with a legacy donation in recognition of the outstanding work they do promoting Scottish heritage. We greatly admire their commitment to preserving our traditions through music, culture, and education.”

Samantha Archer, Pipe Major of the Rhode Island Highlanders added: "We continue to be absolutely astonished by the Tartan Army's generosity and support. In the 78 year history of the Rhode Island Highlanders, we have never experienced anything quite like this. We are so full of gratitude. The impact the Tartan Army's donation will have on our organization's future is immeasurable. Their passion and camaraderie are incredibly inspiring, and we are so honored to be able to share in this once in a lifetime event with them."

The Providence Tartan Army said it hopes the contribution will assist the Rhode Island Highlanders in continuing their educational and cultural programs for years to come.

This is the second major charitable donation that the Providence Tartan Army have provided to the people of Providence, having recently donated $10,000 to the Hasbro Children's Cancer Unit.
