Scotch tastings a first at Highland Games on Saturday
KAMLOOPS — The sound of drums and bagpipes are set to fill the air at Albert McGowan Park on Saturday for the 10th annual Kamloops Highland Games.
“People can expect a day of Scottish music, dancing, pipe bands, little girls and little boys Highland dancing, big guys and muscular women doing traditional Scottish heavy events,” says DJ Clarke from the Kamloops Highland Games Society.
For the first time this year, there will be Scotch tastings, with different varieties from Scotland, at 11 and 11:30 a.m. There will be a history lesson on where the Scotch came from and how it came to be, as well as inspiration behind the unique smells and tastes. There are a limited number of tickets that can be purchased at Albert McGowan Park.
