Anne Arundel Scottish Festival & Highland Games Oct 14, 2006

Sunny and 61!

And for those who don't know, we are holding the East Coast Championships there this year for the athletics. We'll have about 45 guys competing and also 5 girls. Masters, Open Ams, and the ECC contenders.

Some of the best throwers on the east coast will be there. I've trained with a couple of these monsters, and you won't want to miss it. I can guarantee a few field records will fall Saturday!

Did anyone make it too the Anne Arundel Scottish festival? I got so frustrated with that traffic both going to the Scottish festival and going to the Ren. festival that I got out of line and headed home. Those two events should not be planned on the same day. The back up on the beltway was four miles long at one point. That can frustrate the best of us trying to get to either event. Did anyone go at all? How were the games?

Yes the traffic was bad. We came across Rte 32-97-178. But we had good company in the truck so the time passed without incident. I will put up photos soon. We had fun and it was worth going. I loved the parking also.
