Philly Folk Fest Aug 15.
The Philadelphia Folk Festival* is held in August each year near USAK and AK.
AK was a vendor last year (and I think in a prior year). That’s where I got my first kilt.
The event is a large Folk Music Festival – many thousands of attendees.
Very hippy-dippy. More like the original Woodstock festival than anything else still around.
So every style of clothing that you can imagine is worn, and more than a little on the costumed side.
Man skirts. Sarongs. Togas. Ren Fair outfits. Biker. Lots of tie-dye.
And plenty of AKs and UKs and a few SKs. Usually too hot for much else.
Literally. In the campground some gents wear a UK – and that’s all!
Said all that to say this:
My daughter is organizing a Kilt Night for Friday night in the campground.
Meet at camping HQ. Time to be determined – probably at dusk.
A dozen folks in their own kilts are expected.
We will also have a half-dozen economy kilts to lend.
All are welcome!

From an email sent to my daughter and a large group of Festival Camping Volunteers:
"HI everyone I was at work tonite in warminister and gentlemen came in with a kilt on I told him I go to fest and he gave me this site Stillwater Kilts wow it is amazing...you have to check it out and pass the word on. see ya at fest Remember Friday is KILT nite"
I wonder if the Stillwater promoting kilted gent in Warminster (PA) was one of us?
