2010 Kentucky Scottish Weekend
KSW takes place at General Butler State Park in Carrollton, KY (see the XMarks map - if you zoom in, the marker is about where the main gate is to be found, just inside the entrance to the park). It's about a 40-minute drive from both the Louisville and Cincinnati areas. There's usually a British Car Show in conjunction with the event (there wasn't a couple of years ago due to scheduling conflicts).
The extended forecast looks clear but cool (mid-60's F). There may be some rain on Friday, so you may want to bring your overshoes as some areas get a little sloppy.
I'll be there leading the Louisville Pipe Band Grade 5 competition band. (I got elected Pipe Sergeant of the overall LPB back in November, and the Pipe Major is in the Grade 4 unit - long explanation involved with the difference.)
I found out yesterday we'll be the first band to compete, stepping off the line at about 1:30 PM (Eastern Daylight Time). Opening ceremonies - with massed bands - are about noon, maybe 12:30. The band competition award ceremony and closing massed bands is about 4:30-ish.
