Gettin Kilty in Kentucky

**Mark Stephenson** · 6th October 10, 05:51 PM

Welcome from Cincinnati.
If you are looking for a kilt "fix", the Scottish Society of Indianapolis is putting on a highland games/festival this Saturday. It's a bit of a drive from Lexington, but it will be a beautiful drive on Saturday, so come and join in on the fun. If you do come up, please stop by the Clan MacTavish tent and say hi to me, and visit for a spell. Here's a link for more info:

Welcome from a native Louisvillian and 7th generation Kentuckian!

In addition to KY Scottish Weekend at Carollton (Gen. Butler State Park), there's also the Glasgow (KY) Highland Games at Barren River State Park and the Central Kentucky Highland Games at Eminence (at the Renaissance Faire site).

In addition, there are at least two pipe bands in the Lexington Area, one of which (Kentucky United Pipes and Drums) wears the Kentucky tartan.

There should also be a Scottish Society or St. Andrews Society somewhere around your neck of the woods.

Hi, Spitz, and welcome to X Marks from the bottom end of Africa.
Your handle suggests a bit of German ancestry. My paternal family is from Germany, my mother’s from England and Scotland – although on both sides I am also of Afrikaner descent, with roots in France, the Netherlands, Germany, Sweden and Bengal.
Regards,
Mike

Kentucky? Well isn't that something. I just finished booking a quick drive-through stop in Lexington, next week. I figured, I might as well visit the birthplace of some of my favorite bourbons.

Welcome!
