Thanks for the input. I have been interested in finding out what takes place elsewhere. There was a mention of dog demonstrations. At the New Hampshire (Loon) games they actually have a sheepdog competition on friday. I always try to get up there for that. I've been to Glamis Castle and that would be a very picturesque setting for a games. The only games I know of in the states that has a somewhat similar setting are the Round Hill games in Norwalk Ct. They're held in a town park that was an estate. This games has running events and a tug o' war too.
