*Clan Wardlaw booth will be sponsored.
If someone has an interest in representing CWA in their region, other games may be added. For a listing of Highland Games throughout the country go to http://cosca.net/
And here is another Highland Games coming up! See more on this at the new link 'Books of Interest'....
With just three weeks to go until the Loch Norman Highland Games., we're getting into Carolina mode. This year, we'll be offering a wonderful selection of classic titles on the Scots and Scots-Irish in the Carolinas as ebooks. We wanted to give you a preview of these exciting "new" titles. We have county histories on the regions most strongly associated with Scottish settlers, area-specific genealogy and reference works, and two splendid titles dealing with the all-important battle of King's Mountain in the American Revolution — and much more. These are available as either hard-copy CDs or instant downloads, but you'll need to order them directly from Vicki. Our web wizard is currently hard at work moving the entire website to a dandy new shopping cart that will be So Much Easier to use than the old one. (Won't we all be happy about that?) We will send you a notice when it's up and running again, but in the meantime, we'll rely on good old email (mcleod@scotpress.com) or phone (334-501-0202). And don't forget, we'll be happy for you to pre-order them for delivery at the Games; that helps us judge inventory and assures you of avoiding disappointment if we run out.
Happy reading!
Renny and Vicki McLeod
