Who's going to Smoky Mtn Highland Games May 19-20?

I plan on being at the games on Sunday. Anyone else? These are the games that until last year were held in Gatlinburg, TN. They were moved to Maryville College last year, a MUCH better location.

Smoky Mtn. Highland Games are Sat & Sun at Maryville College, Maryville Tennessee. Details at: http://smokymountaingames.org/

We will see you there, Wally. Think my vendor tent will be located in the row parallel to the football field where the clan tents are set up.

travel safe

Kona and Mark,
It's not that far from Pigeon Forge to Maryville, only 30 to 40 minutes as a recall from last year's drive to the games. I'll travel safe, especially the winding road to Townsend.

Mark,
I'll probably be wearing the tan Wallace shirt I bought from you last year at the games along with my USAK Batleys Maple Leaf kilt. In case I need it, I'll bring along my Wallace jacket that I bought from you last year at the Niagara (NY) Celtic Festival last September.

Safe travels to you Mark, and your crew, coming the long distance from Pennsylvania.

I know there are other XMarkers in the area, are any others going? Maybe on Saturday instead of Sunday.

Thanks for the well wishes, Wally. Hope you have been able to get some good use out of your jacket and shirt.

Look forward to seeing you this weekend. Dont really remember too many other XMarks folks being there last year.

One other thing to keep in mind, the Sunday schedule of events has been shortened this year due to the graduation ceremony taking place at Maryville College at 6pm on Sunday. You may want to check out the website for the games schedule here: http://smokymountaingames.org/about/schedule/

The jacket travels with me in our RV for use throughout the year, the shirt worn when going to games.

I knew about the schedule for Sunday, thanks. I am working on Sat, had asked to not be scheduled for work on Sun.
