Williamsburg Scottish Festival 2009

Thank you for posting your LINK to last year's festival. I enjoyed seeing those great photos since I just joined X Marks in May after getting my first kilt in March. I noted your recognition of the Tartan Lady making your clan banner. She is the source of the Clan Claus tartan (my 3rd kilt and the one I'm wearing in my avatar) and she made the Clan Claus banner. Quality work.

Zellna is a gem for sure!

Celtic Force will be there handling the entertainment and the line up is top notch this year. Albannach, Alasdair Fraser/Natalie Haas, Coyote Run, Air Force Heritage Aire Celtic Ensemble (on Sat) w/ concerts on Fri & Sat nights. The new location at Rockahock Campground lends itself wonderfully to hosting this kind of event.

Sorry that both Scotland County & Radford are scheduled on the same weekend, makes for tough decisions. No matter where you end up, be sure to support one of these events if you can. It's the only way we will keep the traditions alive for the next generation.

Received an e-mail from the WSG coordinator. He said the website had been infected by a virus so was temporarily off-line. I just checked again a few minutes ago and its still down. Hopefully, they will have it up by next weekend so folks can check for the latest information.

How about a final roll call on who is attending and their plans.

I'll be arriving Friday to set up the MacCallum Malcolm Clan tent. I’m camping there and will be attending the Friday Ceilidh.

**Sir William** · 28th September 09, 03:26 AM

I'll be arriving Saturday morning and staying the day.

Arriving Saturday morning and staying in Williamsburg Saturday night.

It seems like everytime we plan on going to any games something comes up-both of my boys have the H1N1 bug right now. Don't know, we'll see what happens.

My wife and I are driving up on Friday for the evening events. A couple of friends from our Celtic group may join us on Sat. We would love to say 'howdy' to fellow Xmarks folk who are there. Is the plan to meet at the Elliot tent or at the MacCallum Malcolm Clan tent or somewhere else on Sat?

No one has suggested an alternative to my suggestion to the 3 PM
Saturday, Meet Up at the MacCallum Malcolm tent, so that's the place.
Look forward to meeting you!
