Anyone attending the Saline Celtic Festival in Michigan July 12?

My wife and i will be there Friday night. And the kids are going to join us Saturday. Anyone interested in an informal meet-up over a pint?

We were talking about wending our way over Friday, but nothing seems to start until later, so it seems unlikely. We may be doing a couple of trips to the east side of the state later this summer, though. My wife really wants to go to the Makers' Faire on the 28th, and the band decides this week if we'll be playing at the St. Andrews Games the following weekend.

I will likely go there this weekend, but not until Saturday. And since it's a 4 hour drive for me to get there, I wouldn't arrive until around noon.

I'll be there, but with my mum, so no beer tent for me.

Have fun!

Come on out to Saline! A beautiful park with one of the best festivals around. Make sure you stop and say hello to the Heavy Athletes. We've got some of the best competing from the midwest.

Shall we try to meet to say "Hey" somewhere and somewhen? If the beer tent isn't an option for everyone I'm good with picking an event or we can just pass each other like ships in the night. I'm up for posting a photo so you can either avoid me or not ;-)

I look very much like my avatar. My daughter gave it to me a year ago or so.

I'm easy to find by my tartan, of course... I'll be dancing in the Highland competition and singing in the Irish, but the rest of the day after that is mine.

I'm only 30 minutes away. I might just go after work Friday evening.

**kiltedrennie** · 11th July 13, 07:29 PM

My wife and I will probably go Friday night.

Will there be other dancers wearing the same tartan? Sounds like you'll be in an individual competition and not a group thing. Embarrassed to admit I don't know much about Highland dancing.
