Frankly, I think that one of the big problems is the lack of general interest in Highland Games. Those of us who have ties through heritage or just kilt-iness support them but the general public doesn't though I suspect that they would if they were more aware of them. Sounds like you have a regular circuit in California as opposed to the scattered games here in the MidWest. Almost like we need a central source for Highland Games news and individual athlete's standings.
Geez...if NASCAR can become such a big thing, why can't Heavy Athletics?
I think that we all ought to become boosters and "evangelists" for the sport. Should be ways to promote it more on a regional and national level.
Maybe we need a steroid scandal..........
