Did any of you make it to the Scottish American Society of South Florida games this weekend or was it too far . I was wondering how it was and did any of you catch Hunting McLeod on stage.

John | Competing? In what?
My wife and two daughters are in Rosie O'Grady's Highlanders, though one of my daughters is currently in China and the other is in the temporarily defunct Rosie's Grade 4A band. Saturday my wife was in the Grade 4B band, which took second.
My oldest daughter won the swing tenor competition, but she'll miss the Central Florida games to go visit her little sister in China.
And yes, we should have a meeting. I should be easy to spot. I'll be in a kilt. |

Lauderdale and competed in the Highland Games in the B division. It was a beautiful day, I did not catch any of the stage events, I was busy on the field. Left at 4:00 pm and drove back to Tampa, it made for a long Day.... Quote:

I think it is a great idea to meet, I meat some great Xmarkers at St Mtn. We can Take pics of the group, so let's say Saturday at noon by the Athlete tent. Is that good for everybody?????
