The Loch Norman Highland Games
Rural Hill Centre of Scottish Heritage
Huntersville,
North Carolina
The Loch Norman Highland
Games is a labor of love for the Catawba Valley Scottish Society.
It is a special gathering
on a glorious spring weekend where you can share a little hospitality, make
life long friends and enjoy a Scottish community reunion.
As
you enter the field, the smell of wood fires, the whirling tartan clad
dancers and the sound of the pipes, the sense of being in another time and
place is overwhelming. There is a physical sense of finally finding the
family you belong to. You can check with more than 90 Scottish Clans, Family
Societies and Heritage organizations to find long lost cousins and your
place in this great history.
Did you hear that… the music has a familiar sound… a rhythm and beat that
draws you to it… with stories of bravery, perseverance and audacity… William
Wallace, Robert the Bruce, lovers and fighters and mothers and sons… and
then you realize it is a tune your grandmother used to sing.
Over
the years there has been a lot of discussion in scientific circles about the
possibility of cell or genetic memory. We think the issue could be decided
if they were able to explain what is it that would call anyone to play the
Great Highland Bagpipe.
The pipes are calling. Come play with us at the Loch Norman Highland Games
at historic Rural Hill.
You don’t have to be Scottish to enjoy the food, fun and camaraderie of
competition.
We don’t check toes at the front gate. All are welcome here!
