Glengarry Highland Games

[Sheep In Wolf's Clothing]

This is a wonderful set of pics Sara. These games look to be a really huge event. The Glengarry Games even merited a report in our local newspaper here in Scotland this week by virtue of Scocha performing there as headline band in the tattoo. The report says the Glengarry games are the biggest Highland Games in North America, I wonder if they are also the biggest in the world.
Here is a link to the article in the Hawick News website:-

I have to add Glengarry Games to my Must Visit list.

Thanks for the article Alex. I was waiting for my friend to send me pics of the evening part of the Tattoo. My camera did not do well for evening pictures. Scocha was very good. They did a wonderful song about the pipers of WW1.
If you ever do make it over for the games, keep an eye out for the MacArthur table and say hi!

Wow, that's some huge affair! Were those Grand Stands constructed just for the games? Are the temporary? Great photos.

No they are not temporary.They are used mainly for the games. They updated them a few years ago.
