Highland Games in the rain

Cape and or umbrella should keep most the moisture off. Wool is a great choice when the "misties" are on you!! Have fun and post photos!

I love throwing in the rain!

When they held them in May, the Edinboro Highland Games were almost always in the rain. And Fergus last year was enjoyable, despite the damp.
Dress appropriately and enjoy the weather.

What would a Scot say to a little rain!

Dress appropriately and have a great time

T.

... and a pair of green Hunters.

Seriously, in Scotland the only wet weather option is.... get wet! If we only went out in fair weather we'd hardly go out at all!

Which Edinboro? Would it be the one in northeastern Pennsylvania by any chance?

OMG, just go no matter what the weather. Like McMurdo said, wear wool, and have a good rain coat. You'll have fun. 'Cause if you don't go, you'll be kicking yourself for some time.
