Texas Scottish Festival & Highland Games 2017 - Blog Post by Dogleg Press

Thank you Michael Morgan for the great blog post! Return of the Haggis!

"Dallas and Fort Worth have a number of well-publicized cultural events the first weekend of May, but my favorite, hands down, is the Texas Scottish Festival & Highland Games  held the first weekend of May on the campus of the University of Texas in Arlington.

...

A Clan Village allows attendees to meet and greet members of their extended, sometimes VERY extended, families and compare genealogical notes, or take in dance competitions while melodies from the pipers fill the air. Our guest this year discovered her Scottish heritage leads to Clan Gordon by way of Aberdeenshire County.
Scots are big on kith and kin, and the Texas Scottish Festival is a very family friendly event. Kids can take advantage of a special area and activities just for them."
