    Greetings from Halifax, Nova Scotia

    Hello everybody, I came here looking for information after deciding I want to participate in the local highland games and realized I'm going to need a kilt, but am also looking to become a little more knowledgeable on the ins and outs of kilts, tartans, and thier practical application

    Hello, from right down the Atlantic coastline, on Long Island (NY). I used to get up to Halifax, Dartmouth, and Windsor NS to curl before Covid hit, and got to bagpipe once at The Citadel. I mean, they didn’t invite me there or anything, but I had my bagpipes and I was there, so I jumped at the opportunity.

    Welcome!
