Scottish Highland Games festival returns August 2

Mark your calendars for August 2, when the largest Scottish festival of its kind comes to Greenmead Historic Park (20501 Newburgh Rd, Livonia, MI 48152). There will be games of skill and strength, marching bands, ales and food.  Be sure to take your camera, because the photo opportunities are endless!

St. Andrew’s Society of Detroit is proud to present its 165th Annual Highland Games.  These games are the oldest continuous games in North America. Founded in 1849, the society is a nonprofit organization dedicated to preserving Scottish heritage through its arts, customs, dress, literature, and national games.
