Hi dougez1!

So glad you have chosen to join us. We are quite a mixed bunch but you would fit right in!

Glad you're here in the Rabble! I live in Los Angeles and it would be great to meet up sometime! I've tried to organize kilt events in the southern California areas, so far with little success, but perhaps it's worth a try again. Have a great day and I hope to hear from you! Cheers, Chris!

Welcome!

I'm from right next door in Tustin, small world, eh?

Just spent last weekend at the San Diego (Vista) Highland Games, which does it for our local Games. The closest are the Games in Costa Mesa each Memorial Day weekend.

Our largest California Games are up in the San Francisco East Bay Area, in Pleasanton, each Labor Day weekend. It's well worth the 7-hour drive!

In the fall are the Seaside Highland Games in Ventura.

And I should mention that we have a wonderful brick-and-mortar Highland Outfitter shop about an hour's drive away in Rancho Cucamonga, RP Blandford & Son.

Hope to see you at some of our Scottish-themed events! The Black Watch are coming in February 2016.
