Nancy Calhoun at the clan tent. Nancy is an avid genealogist, and a descendant of John C. Calhoun. |
Tent hostess Dee Calhoun holds the trophy for Most Informative Tent, awarded to Clan Colquhoun at the Games. Said Dee, "Because Colquhoun is a smaller clan, most people who stop by are not descendants, but are seeking information on their ties to Scotland and its families. It is gratifying to know we were recognized for our efforts in providing assistance." |

The weather was almost perfect, and a good crowd attended the second games in this venue. We are unable to show photos of all activities on this page (and we hesitate to show a photo of the remarkable "bonniest knees" contests on Saturday and Sunday for fear our page will be x-rated, but one observer pronounced them "the most entertaining he'd ever seen!"). Three entertainment tents, a country dance tent, a "saloon" full of gun fighters, a performing horse, haggis eating contests, a delightful MC, seven pipe bands and MORE made for a full weekend. |
