Springfield Highland Games (May 16, 2009)

**Scotus** · 15th April 09, 04:07 PM

The Springfield Highland Games and Celtic Festival will be Saturday May 16, 2009. The location is the Illinois State Fairgrounds, Springfield. It had been canceled last year due to underground electrical repair work. These games are worth checking out if you're in the area. The St. Andrew's Society of Springfield does a very good job.

Darn, my wife just informed me that is prom night. Our daughter is a senior this year, 'nuf said. However, if I made a day trip down...

Springfield is only an hour and a half away....

I hope to be there too, of course. Standard, I also go "down" to Springfield and live an hour and a half away too. Hummm....

I'm planning on trekking down from Chicago for the day.

Who is all are planning to attend? It's prom saturday for our high school, so I'll have to leave fairly early in the afternoon, but I'm planning on attending.

Looks like I won't be able to make it! Arggh!

I have about a 3 1/2 hour drive down from Chicago, so I doubt I'll be there before 10. Any thoughts about meeting up? I'll probably be leaving around 3 pm to drive home.
