    Taste of Scotland

    Franklin's 15th ANNUAL TASTE OF SCOTLAND FESTIVAL is THIS WEEKEND!

    Almost time guys! This year's event should be a great one. The town is blocking the street for two blocks downtown meaning the whole area will be pedestrian friendly, and we will have vendors ALL DOWN MAIN STREET.

    We are also having a "Braveheart 5K" run this year (with the participant encouraged to be kilted). Last check we had over 100 participants signed up.

    And, of course, bands, dancers, food, and much fun will be had by all. See you there!

    Come celebrate our FIFTEENTH YEAR of celebrating Scottish culture in downtown Franklin!

    Thumbs up

    Thank you Matt for posting the map showing the parking and activity areas for the Taste of Scotland. It answers my question I posted earlier on the other thread.
