Break out your kilts and your bag pipes! The Scottish Highland Games are back in Mint Hill this weekend with all the regalia and rowdy times that have come to characterize this cultural event in our own back yard. Friday night kicks off the event with a concert featuring several bands and a "calling of the clans". Then, beginning at 9 a.m. on Saturday, events such as the caber toss (throwing a giant tree log), Scottish dancing demonstrations, a Scottish parade and a day full of authentic cuisine will be available to Charlotte area residents and visitors. It's only $5.00 a car, so pool up with friends and family and join us at the Highland Games!
The entire weekend's fun will be held out at Mint Hill Park. For more info visit: http://www.minthillscottishsociety.org/. We know you'll have a blast! Just one word of advice though--take your allergy meds as this event is in a grassy field and can get dusty!
