It was a perfect weather weekend for the Virginia Scottish Games at the Great Meadows in The Plains. I really like this venue and the new layout for the clan tents. There was a good turnout of XMarkers for the Games. I was especially pleased with the kith and kin that came to the Clan MacCallum Malcolm Society tent that I convened. Three new memberships were received.
Santa Wally and wife Sandy dropped by next. SW and Sandy also traveled out of state (PA) to be with us.
It was a beautiful day on Saturday. Sandy and I were there only on Sat. We were there with the Clan Wallace tent. Sunday was the day we continued on our way north to northern PA. I thanked Ern for posting the dates and link for the VA Games on X Marks early. We were able to plan our trip back north from TN via a stop the VA Games. I had met Ern for the first time at Grandfather Mtn Games this year when I was there on Sunday. I have always enjoyed his photo postings. Another get series of photos and captions this time. Thanks Ern.
Since the Clan Wallace Society was involved with the polo match there at the Games on Sat evening, providing the shirts for team "SCOTLAND", Sandy and I attended the "Twilight Polo" matches. There were a number of us kilted gentlemen who were there at the arena polo match receiving lots of complements as we all cheered for our team Scotland. A perfect ending to our day at the VA Scottish Games, our first time at these games. The good Lord willing, we'll be back.
