Highland Games thankful

Aug. 25, 2016 Updated Thu., Aug. 25, 2016 at 8:51 a.m.

We would like to thank the community of Spokane and Spokane Valley for the tremendous support you showed for the 60th annual Spokane Highland Games festival held at the fairgrounds. The turnout was great, and it was wonderful to see so many families enjoying the many cultural events at the fair. Thank you all for coming. We spend the better part of the year preparing for this annual event. This is truly a labor of love, and we couldn’t do it without you.

Thank you to the over 100 amazing volunteers that show up every year, to all of the merchants who provide so many wonderful items in their booths. We look forward to seeing all of year next year, on Aug. 5, for the 61st Highland Games.

Kameron McLean and Clan McLean, Spokane Scottish Highland Games Board
