Heck, I wore my Blackwatch kilt on Manitoulin Island this past summer - we were up there for the Perseids Meteor Shower and camped in a Dark Sky Preserve - rained practically the whole time we were there but, that's another story.
Anyway - my advice to you is, strap it on! Wear it like you were born in it. But, be prepared for one of the three inevitable questions:
1) Are you regimental?
2) What's the occasion?
3) Where's yer pipes?

I presume the traditional response to #3 is to slap your "pockets" and say "I must have left them in my other kilt"?
When in doubt, end with a jig. - Robin McCauley
