PARTICIPATE


What? You mean to say that you have never attended a Highland Festival or Games? Ok, so perhaps you did go years ago but never have had the time lately. Well shame on you, especially if you have some Celtic genes lurking deep in your genealogy.

Highland Games and Festivals are organized to present to the general public the history, traditions and and culture of the Celtic peoples,and in the instance of Highland Games, the Scottish culture.

Most events are organized by volunteers who are determined to present an entertaining display of Scottish music and traditions to a society more accustomed to scenes from Star Wars.

Many of these Games and Festivals rely on tourists to cover their operating costs but it is the descendants of Scottish immigrants who should be the chief supporters and fans of these events. It is their history that is being promoted.

So, the next time all you of Scottish descent(and all of you who just like Scottish culture or the bag pipes) see a Highland Games or Festival advertised in your area, check it out. You will probably be glad that you did. Let me know.
