Clan tents at games - Canada & US

[Jack Daw]

The Texas Scottish Festival in Arlington (TSF) held the first weekend in June is the largest games/fest in Texas. TSF has about 75 clans. The Houston Highland Games has about 30 clans and Salado, the oldest games in TX, has about 40, I think. All three are worth setting up a clan tent.

In Missouri the largest this year were Missouri Tartan Day in St Charles, and the Kansas City Highland Games. You will get a tremendous amount of exposure at either. There are others which are also great venues, but smaller.

Thank you all. Lots of great ideas, a few of which I had already thought of. I'll put the list together from this and pass it on to the Clan Commissioner. Look forward to seeing a MacLea/Livingston(e) tent at some of these games next year!

In New England the largest is the New Hampshire Highland Games at Loon Mountain in Lincoln, NH. During the opening ceremonies the bleachers had over 30,000 spectators. We had 64 clans at the 2009 event. The link in my sig line will bring you to the web site, and the procedure for a clan to register.

There are also the Longmeadow Games in Massachusetts, The Scottish Festival in Rhode Island, The Maine Highland Games. I do not have the stats on them, but each has a good following.


See you Septembre 17, 18, 19th, 2010 on Loon Mountain
