SUMMARY:Georgina Highland Gathering
DESCRIPTION:The Highland Gathering goes far back in time when the men of the highlands first began to compete in various tests of strength, the playing of highland music, and of highland dancing.   I t is said that Kings used these events to test men for battle&hellip; they were tested for strength, endurance, stamina and agility. The best competitors were given the higher ranks on the battle field.    The scene of a Highland Gathering is one of the most colourful and stirring occasions with men in kilts competing in the heavy contests of strength, the dancers regale in splendid colour and the distinctive music from the pipes and drums.  The Highland settlers brought their traditions along with them and we celebrate these traditions at Highland Gatherings around the world. We hope you will join us on Saturday, June 18, 2011!
