Todd,
I am not completely sure if we will be traveling to (my hometown) of Saint Louis for the games this year - I will let you know as soon as possible. Reason being, is that we may attend the Stone Mountain games in Georgia later that month. I have always attended the games there in Saint Louis, and am good friends with the organisers (especially Jim McLaren - went to school with his sons), and it's always a top-notch production - with "true" Highland athletic competitions and superb piping. I am sure professional piper and instructor, Matt Pantaleoni will be there - he typically adjudicates the solo pipers. Last year at the games, we had perfect weather, and Forest Park (home of the 1904 World's Fair) is the ideal venue. Our favoutite wee pub, The Scottish Arms, is very closeby...which is critical, for those post-games pints and drams.
We would love to finally get together once again (even if you are a Comyn - lol! Just kidding!)!
Slainte,
