Hawick Highland Games 2010

[cessna152towser]

As our local rugby ground is being transformed into a Highland Games village for Sunday's games (20th June) I am giving this one a bump.
Being situated in an area which does not have a large population base we are one of the less commercialised games, with the emphasis very much on the traditional games with less in the way of trade stalls and children's funfair rides.
We rely very much on people coming from further afield to watch the Scottish games as there is not sufficient local population to support the large markets and funfairs which subsidise many highland games.
Hope some of you can make it here on Sunday.

You and your commitee did a great job in organising the Games two weeks ago - you were blessed with great weather and it was a great day out. Sadly you did not get the 'buy in ' from the local community but hopefully the Games reputation will build and next year will see an improvement in numbers.
