    Grandfather Games

    We will not be able to make Grandfather this year, (we attend somewhat sporadically,) as we will be traveling to meet our great grand-daughter in Arkansas for the first time. She will be 3 months old when we meet. Please post pictures of the meet-up.

    Cheers,

    David

    Clan Tent Lists on GMHG website

    I received my clan package earlier this month, and today I received our tickets to the Friday night reception. I just checked the GMHG website, and the clan tent lists are posted, alphabetically and numerically. Clan Sinclair will be at 2/57. That's on the back row (not field-side) and near the Band Arch, on the opposite end of the East Meadow from the main entrance. My sweetie, @carolinanan117, and I will be there from Thursday afternoon through Sunday afternoon. If you attend, be sure to stop by for a visit, a wee dram of Old Pulteney, and photo.

    Grandfather Games

    Great pics. Thank you for sharing. Looks like you had nice weather. Last time I was at Grandfather they had a tornado go through the night before the games. All of you look great, but I really like WVHighlanders Cochrane kilt.

    Cheers,

    David
