Can't make it this year. We will be going to Richmond, VA around the 26th of July though.

My fam and I are planning to be there this year...we like to camp but this time we'll probably make a day-trip out of it. I think my son's pipe band will be playing there this year, so I guess I'll have to be there.

If anyone wants to stage in the Asheville area I can recommend some campgrounds, hotels, pubs, etc. We're about 2 hours from GFM.
And a Sunday evening post-games event at Jack of the Wood in Asheville is a definite!

Any particular reason for the Richmond trip? I might be able to get into town around that time if you want to meet somewhere. But since I'm just an old country boy, I don't know a lot about pubs and such in the area.I have tried to find Celtic pubs in Richmond using Google, but not had a lot of luck.

My family and I are booked into a camp ground from Thursday to Monday, so we will be there for the whole games. I hope we meet some xmarkers.

Hi all. Been offline for some time, amazed I still have an account!

As always, GMHG is my summer vacation. You'll find me at the House of Lumsden tent, but since my partner and I are the only two working the tent, I can't get away much during the actual Games. Still, all are invited to come by the tent, say hello, share a dram, etc.

Those of you who camp at the Games, wander down, on the family side, to the area festooned with flags of all sorts. We call ourselves Clan MacVillage, and all are welcome. Just ask for the Canuckian (Canadian) and someone will point me out to you.
