The Octorara Covenanter Presbyterian Foundation would like to thank everyone who attended & participated in the 9th Annual Covenanter Scottish Festival & Highland Games. We were blessed again with perfect weather! The performers & heritage events were outstanding, enthusiastic clans & organizations were there to share their history, Scottish wares & food were for sale and over seventy amazing athletes competed in the Games. Kirstie & Jason Corder did an incredible job organized the Games. Also, thirty-five pipers competed in Solo Piping Competitions. As always, Thompson & Betsy McConnell did an amazing job organizing the Competitions.
Highland Dance returned this year, with thirty-five dancers. Cailine Drummond & Heather Sutherland organized this great event. A big thank-you goes out to our hardworking volunteers who did an outstanding job. Without the energetic folks at Middle Octorara Presbyterian Church & other community members, this event could not take place!! We were very fortunate and thankful to have many generous sponsors. It was a fun day and an all-around great way to celebrate the heritage of the Scots & Scots-Irish in Southern Lancaster County!
