    Greenville to get visit from Britain's Prince Edward | greenvilleonline.com | The Greenville News

    & from the official games website:
    "The 2010 Bonnie Lad and Lassie Pageant will be an experience your child will never forget. Your child will stand onstage with HRH Prince Edward, Queen Elizabeth's youngest son, and perform for him! Prince Edward is the father of two small children, and we are told he is particularly interested in our Games' focus on teaching children about the Scottish heritage of the Upstate. We are the only children's Scottish Heritage Pageant as far as we can determine, and we offer a real live Prince to boot!"

    Good point, Jock. Prince Edward does wear the kilt in the Highlands, but it is extremely rare for a member of the Royal Family to wear the kilt outside of Scotland...let alone in the Colonies!

    It certainly is not a problem for Prince William of Wales to wear a suit at the Braemar Gathering. I don't like it, but the precedent has been set.
