So now its found a new home at The Great Meadows.
You are thinking of the Richmond Highland Games which for years has been at the race track. It too is moved this year and will be in Doswell near Kings Dominion. It's been renamed The Meadows and will be the last weekend in October. Here is their link.
We are very pastoral here in Virginia.
