A friend of mine and I are of the opinion that North Carolina needs another Celtic/Scottish Festival/Games. Before everyone goes off telling me about Grandfather Mountian and Loch Norman and Scotland County ect. ect. Hear me out. I live in near Goldsboro, NC in the eastern part of NC. The closest festival to our location is nearly a two hour drive, and with my wife owning her own business it's hard to get out of town for an entire weekend.

So here is my questions. Has anyone been intimatly involved with starting a festival/large scale event? And would anyone in the eastern part of NC...let's say from Raleigh east be interested in forming a Scottish Society to help support such an event. Any ideas would be greatly appriciated.
