    Did anyone else think the whole event was un organized? For a 30th anual event, It just seemed "thrown together". The games were held in the back corner, not viewer friendly, and everything was happining at once. I am glad that active duty military got in free or I would have been disapointed. On another note, I wish I read this thread sooner, I would like to have met some of you. djweso couldn' get there til after I left. (kids had been there all day and needed rest. Over all I made the bst of it and had fun.

    Try Richmond at the end of this month. There will be a lot more going on, including the annual North American Scottish heavy athletics championship. Unfortunately, all of the festivals I have attended are similar. This is because they are somewhat like a big state fair. A lot of things are happening at the same time. However, the athletic field in Richmond is a lot bigger than in Williamsburg. But like all venues, the clan tents are arranged around the field, making the available spectator area smaller.
