I'll be there sometime Saturday morning and will be in the general vicinity of the Clan MacMillan tent.

Just mentioning that the Scottish Tartans Museum tent this year will be staffed by Jim and Kathie Akins, whom some of you on this forum know. Kathie is our "weekend warrior" who works at the museum most Saturdays for us, as well as a few other days during the week. She also helps coordinate our Taste of Scotland Festival, as well.

Jim, her husband, is a stalwart volunteer of the museum, and can usually be seen at Kathie's side when she is working for us.

Please pop in and say hi. We'll be a little short handed this year, due to some illnesses and other matters that are keeping folks from the games who were otherwise planning on attending.

I'll be there with my bro. I'll be around wearing a black watch and he'll be wearing the xmarks tartan.

Hey all,

Does anyone happen to know the results for the amateur events? I am planning to compete next year and I would like to know what kind of numbers I will be up against.

[bchunter]

I've not seen them, but you might try contacting Ed or Margaret at Rural Hill. I talked to Ed earlier this week and they were about finished compiling all the various facts, figures, etc from the weekend.

bchunter,

Thank you very much.

All I can tell you is that Eric Frasure set a new world record in the sheaf at 36 feet 1 inch, and here's the picture I took of it happening:

piperdbh,

That is an excellent shot. Does Frasure know you have this picture?

[piperdbh]

Yes. I showed him just a few minutes after the feat, and my Mrs. posted it to Facebook.
