    Sunday June 1 The Lamont's in the Pacific NW held a 5K kilted walk through downtown Tacoma WA. 25 people were led by two pipers the entire route and two more pipers joined us at the end to pipe us back to the Pub.

    Over $800 was raised for the restoration of the Kilfinan church vault in Scotland
    THANK YOU to all who contributed,


    The organizers of the walk
    Don Moore, George Young, & Robert Lamb

    Great photos, hope all had a good time, must have been nice to have the pipers along.

    So thats what that was! I was up in the SEA-TAC area that day visiting some dear friends and we had gotten a little lost in Tacoma (no biggie, was enjoying the drive) and as we were driving down one of the streets we passed by all of this. Now I know :-)
