    This will be my first year attending the games. I have some friends that are staying the week before and the week after in the campground. I live close enough that I will just sleep in my comfy bed and drive the 11/2 hours to get there. As much rain as we have had lately I am hoping it will be all rained out by then. I hope to meet ya'll there.

    Hey, what are the clansmen ribbons ? I wish the games in Georgia handed out ribbons for the tents, but they don't .so I was just wondering what ribbons you were talking about.

    As Thomas H said, take you Wellies if you go! (And a raincoat and big umbrella too!)

    We drove over from Texas for the games last year, and to put it mildly, the weather was uncooperative. Our last evening there, the sun did peek out... I'm not planning on attending again this year, but may give it another go in the future.

    Here's a photo from last year featuring the crucial item:

    Dear lord I hope we are done with the rain by then. We have had a fair amount of flooding in the lowlands this year.
