Chairman – Mr Robert MacIntyre’ s                    WELCOME

 

“I extend a warm welcome to all our visitors who have come to enjoy the Rosneath Peninsula Highland Gathering.  Now in our 31st year, we well understand that you have come to enjoy the colour and spectacular of a traditional village Highland Games and many other attractions that have been laid on to make up a very special fun, family day out, and that is what you will find here today.     

The Rosneath Peninsula Highland Gathering prides itself on its international reputation but it remains a traditional Highland Games welcoming participants from within the local communities, Scotland and from around the world.  Competitions include the Heavy Events of the highland games, cycling and athletics events, and the highland dancing and piping competitions.   And this year we have reintroduced the tug-of-war competition.  However, none of this would be possible without the support of our Sponsors and I particularly want to thank the local Council and local businesses for their support yet again this year.

There are attractions for all the family to try their hand at including archery, testing out those strongman skills by attempting to lift the St Modan’s Stone and the chance for the children to prove to their parents that they really can walk on water!  If that is all far too energetic, there are stalls to browse, food and drink outlets to enjoy or just the restful ambience of the picturesque setting of the Games.  

I hope you do enjoy your visit with us today  and please take the opportunity to let me know how you have enjoyed your day.  

                The Committee extends a warm  welcome to you all, and hope to see you on Sunday 18th JULY 2010
