Final set of photos: Glengarry Highland Games

Lots of people! The kilts are amazing.

Lots of kilts in the parking lot!

Warm-up tents

Drums in the back!

Clans meet in various buildings.

Families all wearing the same uniforms!

This is where they compete, each at a station in the field,
with judges at a table.

I bet they get heavy after awhile!

The ubiquitous lemonade stand!
There was a ton of food!

Glengarry Highland Games –sheep dogs, police, bands, heavyweight competitions!

Good, clean fun! Nicely dressed young people, primping and preening. Kilts of all colours. Competitions and highly skilled, well-dressed people, all. Fiddling, dancing, piping and throwing of heavy things!
Men and women in blue, making sure all was well. They fit in rather well, in uniform!

Hardly a tattoo in the bunch, except for the pipers piping. There were very few people smoking, too.
The Glengarry Highland Games in Maxville: lots of pomp and circumstance.

Sheep Dog Demonstration –Werner Reitboeck- Navall Farm. He began with his older, experienced 'retired' dog. Then showed how much training can do and how the younger, 4-year-old dog, had herding instincts. It was amazing how the dogs sit, watching his face, total adoration, just waiting to get going.
