Could easily double. COMMENTS: This is a fun and very interesting event to watch. 1998 was down in numbers due to political problems within the association. Several other sanctions were not approved and therefore, the exhibitors did not feel registration at the Estes Pull was beneficial since they had lost their points earlier. The Saturday event, in particular, has many onlookers. Management needs to find a high profile place for the event which will allow both the snow competition and the dirt competition so that more bleacher seating can be provided. Onlookers would stay longer if they had a place to sit. -29/ SPECIAL EVENTS EVALUATION 1998 WINTER TRAIL DAYS SNOW SHOEING DATE: February 21 & 22 NO. OF YEARS: 1 NO.

Look for this to be a major winter event for Estes Park! COMMENTS: Huge success. Planning on 1999 event. Lots of families. Many took advantage of the guided hikes. Most were from Larimer and Boulder Counties, 10% from the Denver area. Downtown merchants reported they did stop in town after their time in the park.

Roy Romer also expressed his appreciation of the Longs ~ Peak Scottish Highland Festival in an Honorary Proclamation. COLORADO DAYS OF THE SCOTS September 5-8, 1996 WHEREAS, the Longs Peak Scottish Highland Festival in Estes Park is 20 years old this year and is celebrating its birthday with another colorful four days of pipes and drums, entertainment, jousting, dance and music competitions; and WHEREAS, this nation consists of people of many diverse ethnic and national backgrounds, and this extraordinary festival provides an entertaining means for individuals of Scottish descent to honor their heritage and share it with oth- ers; and WHEREAS, competitors will join in Scottish games of strength and skill, of bagpiping, drumming, drum major, pipe band and Highland dancing competition; and WHEREAS, it is important for us as Americans to remember and celebrate our past and this festival allows Coloradans who are of Scottish ancestry to come together and enjoy their common traditions; NOW, THEREFORE, I, Roy Romer, Governor of Colorado, proclaim September 5-8, 1996, as COLORADO DAYS OF THE SCOTS in the State of Colorado. GIVEN under my hand and the Executive Seal of the State of Colorado, this fifth day of September, 1996 Ci- Roy Romer Governor British Embassy in Washington D.C. Letter Dear Dr. Durward, Bridsh Embassy It gives me great pleasure to send greetings to the 21 st Longs Peak Scottish Washington Highland Festival. As a Scot, born in the Highlands, I am delighted to see Scottish heritage and tradition sustained here in the United States. Scotsmen were among the first settlers at Jamestown in 1607, and the Longs Peak Scottish Highland Festival is a vivid reminder of a link which is still close and deep. When you hear the skirl of the Black Watch Pipes, I hope you will say - with all the traditional modesty of the Scots - "Here's to us, whar's like us!" lf-,14-11 Cd o John Kerr Longs Peak Scottish Highland Festival * Page 7 1 1 1 I I A Letter from a Scotsman: Dr. Thomas M. Sutherland i Welcome to the 1997 Longs Peak Scottish Highland Festival. This is now "=' ~"'24 - ..0 i i'.11=11.11 0 ' 7 Il 4. I the 21 st of these; this year it officially "comes of age." - .4 + *141 11 1 1. 505 - f Ef]IM Jean and I have been coming since the early years, when there were almost as . 4 many competitors as visitors, and not many of either! It has been wonderful to see the evolution of the Festival into a major event on the calendar of Scottish celebrations all over the country. Dr. Jim Durward has nurtured it almost single handedly into a grand tradition up here in Estes Park. This weekend, you are bound to meet people not only from Larimer County or Colorado, but from all corners of the United States and even the world. And many of them will be repeat visitors who, like me, are "hooked" on the event. a How often I thought of Scotland and Colorado, my two homes, in those dark 14&- days when I was a hostage in Lebanon chained to the wall in black cells. It was my "freedom in captivity" to walk the Scottish glens and the Colorado mountains in spirit, 16 Â·Â®t. r ' and it was part of my survival to think that one day I might again be free and able to come back to our summer home in Tahosa Valley and to participate again in this won- derful Festival. What a setting it is! What better place to carry on our Scottish traditions! Â· * .Â·-it: And a most important one of these is hospitality. Everyone's welcome - you don't even p.* need any Scottish blood in your veins to enjoy this Festival. Let us share together in the 1 fun - the Saturday parade and the gathering of the clans, the massed pipe bands, the , ff,L prayer breakfast and the seminars, the music, the dancing, the dog show, athletic com- petitions, the kilts and flowing tartans. Colorado is truly blessed to have this celebration 1 high in her Rocky Mountains. How prophetic the words of Robert Burns, Scotland's National Bard: From scenes like these auld Scotia's grandeur springs, that makes her 1 loved at home, revered abroad. Larimer County Proclamation 1997 Longs Peak Scottish Highland Festival Whereas, the Longs Peak Scottish Highland Festival is celebrating its 21 st annual festival; and, Whereas, the Celtic culture is the heritage of many of our Larimer County forefathers; and, Whereas, Larimer County was founded by many settlers from the Celtic nations of Scotland, Ireland, Wales and the Isle of Mann; and, Whereas, the Longs peak Scottish Highland Festival, which is always the first weekend after Labor Day, will from hence forth be the celebration of the Celtic New Year.

The Festival has always supported charitable organizations - We are the Festival that cares! The Lucky Tee Program was initiated to further increase this endeavor. Anyone who purchases one of the 5,000 printed "Lucky Tee" shirts will have a chance of winning the Longs Peak Scottish Highland Festival's official car. The "Lucky Tee" shirts cost $15, $5 of that will go to a special charitable event, and $10 will be used to pur- chase the official car, which is a 1997 Plymouth Neon Coupe. The artwork on the 100 percent cotton "Lucky Tee" shirts is a classic photo of the Regimental Black Watch Pipes and Drums. The drawing for the official Festival car will be Sunday, Sept. 7, at 4 p.m. on the Festival field during the clos- ing ceremonies. The 1997 recipients of the "Lucky Tee" proceeds are the Humane Society from the sale of shirts at the 5k Scotty Run and Race Walk that was held July 12, and the Longs Peak Scottish Highland Festival Scholarship Fund. In 1998, the Festival committee hopes to feature four 5k run and race walks, possibly one in June, July and August with the final championship on Sunday, Sept. 13, at the 1998 Longs Peak Scottish Highland Festival's new U.S./International 5k Championships. Estes Park's Coat of Arms David Acton, Rocky Mountain Commissioner of Clan MacDougall, is a lead- -v- \~ing Heraldic authority and Estes Park resident who has been the clan's representa- .r.-r .116 Itive in Clan Row for the past 10 years. " ...1-,1 He designed this flag in 1996 and presented it to the Longs Peak Scottish .,Ec~~~Highland Festival committee. This is Estes Park's official Coat of Arms. All of the colors and figures in the ~~|~/~*e~Coat of Arms are symbolic of the nature and activities that exist in Estes Park, the I ICULUL'lill ladjacent Rocky Mountain National Park and the State of Colorado. The shield is divided diagonally red and blue with a gold diagonal stripe. Red represents the color of much of the earth and rock in this state. The Colorado state flower, the blue columbine in natural colors, is depicted on the red background. Blue represents the clear skies and water of this area. The skis and poles allude to the wonderful skiing available in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado. Snow-capped peaks occupy the upper part of the shield and the bottom pictures a swimming trout which inhabits the cold, clear streams. Longs Peak Scottish Highland Festival 9 A *3 Page 12 1 I .

Sometimes called the "Auld Forty Twa," it originates from the six ' - independent companies raised in 1725 to police the Highlands, where there was still unrest following the Jacobit rising in 1715. In 1739, with the threat of war against Spain, George Il ordered that the Independent Companies be incorporated into a Regiment of Foot under the Earl of Crawford. Originally numbered the 43rd and called the Highland Regiment of Foot, it held its first parade nearAberfel* in Perthshire in May 1740. Â· . The name, Black Watch, was not officially used until 1861. * However, it comes from the dark tartan wom and the nature of its original duties. The tartan is derived from the families of those who commanded the independent companies, the Campbells, Munros 4$ 4. and Grants, and was, of course, in marked contrast to the red coats ~ '~ of the English. 4 The Regiment received its real baptism of fire at Fontenoy -h in 1745 during the War of the Austrian Succession, acquitting itself with distindion. - D, In 1749, while serving in Ireland, the Regiment received the 4 number 42nd by Royal Wanant and later during the conquest of r Canada, after distinguishing themselves at the Battle of Ticonderoga, was granted the title of Royal. Highland soldiers had been so suc- 1 D ~, cessful that a second battalion was raised that year, and after some *4/N changes, was numbered the 73rd Highland Regiment of Foot in t ~ .. 1786. This battalion gained new battle honors in the campaign k against Tippoo Sahib in India. The Duke of Wellington obtained his rt .. bi first commission as an ensign of the 73rd. The Red Hackle is the well-known emblem of the Black *' Watch, which has been wom for more than 160 years. Legend asso- !-,Ii,~. dates it with an incident at the Battle of Geldemalsen on Jan. 5,* * 1795, when the Highlanders rescued two guns of the 11th Ught . Uil I. P . ... Dragoons, which had been captured by the French. For its gallantry on this occasion, the Black Watch was awarded a distindive badge - the Red Hackle made from vulture feathers. Whatever the mer- its of this story, Red Hackle Day is celebrated on Jan. 5, and the Black Watch gained exclusive rights to the Red Hackle in 1822. In 1801, at the Battle of Alexandra in Egypt, the 42nd was later described as standing pre-eminent for gallantry and steadfastness, which would be difficult to match in the history of any army. At Alexandra, the Regiment won the honor of bearing the Sphinx with the word "Egypf' as a badge on its colors after holding out against superior odds and repelling Napoleon's invincible forces. The capture of a French eagle was later commemorated by a silver presentation from the Highland Society. The Black Watch served in the Peninsula, gaining 10 more battle honors and both battalions took part in the Battle of Waterloo. In the Crimea, the 42nd saved the day at the Battle of Alma when it was left by Sir Colin Campbell to capture the Russian posmons. Twenty-five battalions served in WW l earning honors in the retreat from Mons, Ypres, Loos, the Somme and on the Hindenburg Une. In WW Il, the battalion fought in almost every campaign, but the breakout from Tobruk in 1941, when the second bat- talion was ployed in the battle by Pipe Major Roy, was one of its finest exploits. Three battalions fought at El Alamein and these same battalions were amongst the first to cross the Rhine at the end of the war. More recently, the first battalion gained its last battle of honor against overwhelming Chinese opposition on the Hook in Korea. Since then, the 1 st battalion has served on active operations in Kenya and Cyprus and on policing duties in Gibraltar, Hong Kong and Notthem Ireland. Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother, whose family has close ties in the Regiment, has been Colonel in Chief since 1937 and celebrated her 50th anniversary in 1987. The Black Watch is led Pipe Major Steven Small and Drum Major Pat McLinden. -Longs Peak Scomsh High/and Feat/va/ - '- v aw-â€¢4* %:el ' Â·13* Vt ~ Page 18 1 1 ' 1 Band of the Ceremonial Guard L-Â·64 1 1 I t 6 - f - -211 A-=-10 P . - --r- , 4 4 6 30 23#.4 7 1(14 + 0 *!Rj,yii> 6 r t r w : q.

AJ - 1 The Naval Gun Run is derived from a military necessity during the Boer War (1899-1902). British troops ashore desperately needed additional artillery support. Therefore, ponderous naval guns were removed from fixed mountings aboard ships and placed in gun-carriages. These were disassembled and transported ashore, often by hand, using ropes and pulleys. Once ashore, naval gun crews fought alongside army counterparts. Later, the guns and crews were returned to their ships by the same method. The cannon now used by the Gun Run team is a replica of a field piece circa 1812. The Navy's Gun Run was established in 1967 for the Tattoo marking Canada's centennial. From 1980 to 1995, it was an annual feature of the Nova Scotia International Tattoo in Halifax. During the summer, the Gun Run travels to cities and towns throughout eastern Canada, where the team's demonstration of physical fitness, strength, dexterity and teamwork has been witnessed by about 3 million spectators. The Naval Gun Run team currently has 35 members primarily from the ships of Maritime Forces Atlantic. This includes an 18-person crew to disassemble the gun, transport it across a chasm, reassemble and fire it. The remain- der are spares, and for safety, set up and support crew. Replicating the scramble to transport a naval gun from ship to shore, the Gun Run team, at the start signal, hauls the 900-kilogram cannon and gun-carriage to a stylized wall. The gun is removed from the carriage and the entire apparatus is disassembled, hauled up a ramp, and then, using ropes and pulleys, is carried piece-by-piece across a 30-foot chasm, which symbolizes the movement from ship to shore. At times, the cannon, wheels and car- riage components are up to 9 feet off the ground. Once across the chasm, the gun is reassembled, loaded and fired. The process is repeated as the team renegotiates the chasm, reconstructs the gun and fires it again, which symbol- izes the return of the gun and crew to its ship. The entire procedure is completed in less than 3 minutes! - 1 1 ESTES PARK PHARMACY Pharmacy is our Only Business la insurance associates of estes, inc. Shelley K. Doggett, AAI, CIC Scott R.

Throughout the past 61 years, the band has been a focal point for the police community relations within Wellington and New Zealand. The band eventually was restructured into a competing unit, which resulted in winning the Grade 2 New Zealand Championship Title. Since then, the band has gone on to win many other awards. The band has performed at tattoos, concerts and pipe band competitions in cities around the world. In 1994, the commissioner of the New Zealand Police renamed the band to the New Zealand Police Pipe Band. This name change was in recognition of the band's achievements both nationally and internationally and also for the wider role the band now plays for the police department. The band is sponsored by Air New Zealand and wears the King George the VI tartan. The pipe major of the band is Alistair Hanning, the drum sergeant is Ross Levy and the drum major is Dale Stephens. 1 1 4/97=:i Your Hosts GARY ANDEILEEN KEIMIG 970-586-5523 The John's Family ~MOUNTAIN 8 Located on Rte. 34 East ~ INN W 1220 Big Thompson Ave. COMâ‚¬DUÂ» LESTESPAA' COLOHADO P.O.

Formerly known as the Halifax Police Association Pipe Band, the band's name was changed when the cities of the area were amalgamated. The Halifax Regional Police Service Pipe Band features two competitive bands and a school of piping and ' drumming. In 1989, both of these bands competed at the world championships with the senior group placing second in Grade 111 and capturing best drum corps. Both bands went on to win more competitions. The band performs at many festivals and ceremonies as ambassadors for the city and the police department. Like many other police bands, this one provides an important link between the community and its police officers. Also, it plays a major role in promoting tourism and supporting civic events. The band is led by Pipe Major John Walsh and Drum Sergeant Dave Danskin. The band wears the Princess Elizabeth tartan and appears by kind permission of His Worship Mayor Walter Fitzgerald and Chief of Police Vince MacDonald. 1- .u'zillu,Â£'avili/Mi,/:r,Â·i Ti'.r./.mr- ROCKY MOUNTAIN TRADERS Frank and Karen Williams Gifts & Souvenlrs >401\ Indian Jewelry .

The ladies often rode Palfreys in processions and ceremonies. The Charger was the medium-sized horse ~ such as the much-sought-after Friesian horse (this breed was developed by the Flemish Monks in the 1300s) and other warm blooded breeds. The Charger was used much in tournaments, as it was large enough to hold a knight and his armor, and swift and agile enough to be extremely maneuverable. The Destrier was the "tank" of the Middle Ages. It could be equipped with hun- dreds of pounds of armor as well as an ironclad knight, and it could still charge into battle, although the charge of the Destrier was sometimes a walk or a trot. These horses were the heavy breeds. Percherons, Belgians, Shires and Clydesdales were being developed for warfare. It seems that different countries developed their own war horse breed. Viewers of jousting may need to expand their vocabulary. Many jousting terms have a French origin presum- ably because the French knights were regarded as the premier jousters in Europe, at least through the 13th century. Pas d'Armes is a distinctive form of the sport of jousting in which individuals or teams proclaimed their inten- tion to defend a given place against all corners. Joust a' Outrance is a jousting competition where the lance was fitted with the usual sharp head, and the contest ended when one combatant was killed or disabled. However, the fight could be stopped if so desired, and some contests were held solely to display skill and courage with such weapons. Be'hourd is a friendly, informal meeting in arms where the participants were clad in padded garments instead of armor and used lightweight lances instead of the usual heavy war lances. The purpose of these be'hourds was simply to train and have fun. Joust a' Plaisance is a joust where "arms of courtesy" were used. Lances were fitted with a blunt tip, swords were dulled, and the jousting and fighting that was done was more for the pleasure of it than anything else. 01/.ilt 1/ .~~1~.I A. , I , I I - F.-. 4 e . . .A , 0 , Longs Peak Scottish Highland Festival 2%7 Page 31 - I 1 1 Original 100% Cotton HAN0 THROWN STONEWARE Highland Shirts Free Shipping US.A Highland Onginals $ 40 Drawstring Blouse $ 32 GREG DANNELS Natural OfIAWhite - Hand Shrunk Buzz Kidder Originals. 3501 OJibwa St. Sierra Vista,Arizona, 970/586-2955 85635 Call After 6PM (5201378 -2443 http://lubbock.com/scotmall/ RO.

Each breed is presented with a live narration about it. This is one of the most popular Festival events with thousands viewing it each day. A complete schedule of events is available in the Dogs of the British Isles Tent Fun Match A Fun Match is being conducted to give the public a better picture as to every aspect of the breed of dog then perhaps they want to know. The Fun Match will be run just as any other Fun Match, preparing the dog for the AKC Confirmation Ring. Terrier Races & Dig The Terrier Race is a race of same breed terriers down a long track, chasing a fox tail through a hole. All terriers are muzzled for their safety. The Terrier Dig is a test of natural instinct to "go to ground," pursuing quarry through a blind tunnel by scent. It is intended to encourage and preserve the natural terrier instinct, thus the pur- pose of its breeding. This event is a timed trial course. Sanctioned Herding Instinct Test This event is sanctioned by the American Herding Breed Association and the Bearded Collie Club of America. Herding breed dogs can earn an AHBA herding title by earning a leg each day, under two separate judges. This is an opportunity for the city dog who lives in the confines of an apartment or the backyard of homes to show his natural instinct to herd. Times will be assigned in order or receipt of entry. Brace and Team Class Competition A Brace Unit is the showmanship of two dogs of the same breed, as close to identically marked as possi- ble, owned by the same owner, shown in precision on one leash. Classes will be held on Saturday afternoon instructing dog owners as to how to prepare and practice for AKC competition. Competition will be held on Sunday following regular class judging. All dogs must be entered in the Festival individually. Longs Peak Scottish Highland Festival Page 56 1 Larry Vontz: 1997 Honored Festival Chairman Larry Vontz, founder of the Dogs of the British Isles at the Longs Peak Scottish Highland Festival, has more than 30 years of experience in the world of dogs in breeding, showing and rescue. Vontz first attended the Festival in 1982 by participating in dog-related events. He realized the Festival would be a great place to educate people about the Dogs of the British Isles. His idea was accepted, and since then more than 300 dogs compete in the herding instinct test, terrier go to ground, obedience demon- strations, terrier races, brace unit classes and competition, agility competi- tion, exhibit booth competition, fun match, grand march of dogs and the evening tattoos - all of which demonstrate how the dog has served people of the British Isles for centuries. The most-photographed events at the Festival are dog-related. Many of the photographs are presented in calendars and used in other articles written on Dogs of the British Isles in national dog magazines. Vontz is a breeder of Bearded Collies, which have won numerous championship titles. In 1982, he formulated a Bearded Collie rescue pro- gram. He visits shelters at least twice a week to check for a possible impounded Beardie. In 1988, Queen Elizabeth granted Vontz permission to use any music from her royal regimental bands in the presentation of the Grand March of e Dogs, which is a trademark of the Longs Peak Scottish Highland Festival and is wodd-renowned as the "most prestigious and educational presenta- tion of Dogs of the British Isles" in the world. His most memorable and cherished award was received at the 1995 Longs Peak Scottish Highland Festival when partici- pants of many years in the Dog Unit named him the "Official Pack Leader." For those not familiar with the term, it refers, in a favorable sense to, "the strongest and smartest among a family of dogs."

Experts who taste simple malts of Scotch whiskey like to use a tulip-shaped, blue-tinted glass. When they pour a sample, they add an equal amount of water which helps to release the aroma of the whiskey. As the story goes, George Smith in 1824 took out a license from the Crown and started distilling the Glenlivet in the Glen (canyon) of the River Livet. "Glenlivet it has castles three, Drumming, Blairfindy and Deskie, And also one distillery, More famous than the castles three." The Longmorn Distillery stands in the deepest part of the Scottish Highlands on the site of an ancient chapel. The name comes from an ancient Gaelic word meaning "Place of the Holy Man." Scotch and Scottish ales are basically the same beverage. Scotch is a distilled Scottish ale. Scotch did not become popular until the early 19th century and Scottish beers have been recorded as the choice of fermented bever- ages in the earliest recording history. Researchers believe that the Picts and Scots were brewing barley beer before the Roman Empire invaded Britain in 43 A.D. Alfred Barnard, in the three-volume "Noted Breweries of England and Ireland", states that the old monks of the Abbey of Holywood were fancied for their nut brown ale. Guinness beer from Ireland also has the nut brown color and is brewed from an old recipe. The Bass Ale Company is the parent company of United Caledonia Breweries. Harp beer is never left out of the menu of good Irish beers!

Michael Patritch is well qualified to dis- pense Irish charm and blarney thanks to his ancestry; his grandparents' names were McGrath, McGill, Cowgill and Quinn, and they were from counties Clare and Donegal, Ireland. Patritch was born in Oregon and raised in Europe, and he later came to Colorado Springs when his father retired. He earned a bachelor's and master's degree in speech and theatre from Adams State College in Alamosa, Colo. He taught junior high school speech and drama classes in Durango, Colo. During the sum- mers when he wasn't teaching, he toured a bit, singing and play- ing the guitar. Patritch first came to the Festival in 1986 and dressed as if he just stepped out from under a shamrock. His outfit consists of Irish green derby with matching coat and knickers; w Â· lace ascot at the neck, and tufts of Irish lace peeking out 4 1 - from his sleeves. To complete the outfit, he carries an Irish Black Thorn walking stick. Festival founder Dr. Jim Durward . .Â· . ''7'....t- - . honored Patritch as the official Festival Leprechaun in 1996.

The remainder of the body is held rigid, and the arms, except in group dancing are kept at the side. ' .1 There are various kinds of Irish dance. The reel is the second most u , popular one. It is a light rapid soft shoe dance for both men and women. The hornpipe came into fashion about 1760, as a vigorous masculine dance performed wearing a heavy, hard shoe. A distinctive feature of the hornpipe is the rocking motion of the ankles. Set dances are a group of highly com- plex, demanding dances, done to specific tunes beating the name of the particular dance. i / Baskincif) Robbins 1.4Â»' Come Visit our Booth Ice Cream at tbe Sairgrounts Ice Cream Concessions Barry Stimits Breakfast or Cuncb 2714 Andromeda Colorado Springs, Colorado 80906 719-632-5564 Sresb Bakeb Boots Donuts, (Duffins, Bogels, anb Danisb SLINKEE TATERS Irish Stew serveb in Breab Boules Bagel Sanbwicbes 1322 E.

Movements of the dance indicate a kicking off of the hated trousers. The sharp turns and leaps toward the end of the dance, which bring the kilt to life, are expressions of the pride and freedom symbol- ized by traditional Highland dress. ./ The Sailor's Hornpipe is a national dance of - 1 c _ 4 4 4.,-j~Ill~ England.

I_*1*1Â»'I*I'.79p .4%E/~ In late March, the Pennsylvania Newspaper Association (PNPA) announced that two an Scdthâ‚¬in staff writers, Patrick McCormick and Tom Mitchell won first and second place awards, respectively, in PNPA's annual Keystone Press Awards. The comment made by one of the contest judges regarding Mitchell's submission was quite revealing. He said, "Reading an Scdth,in makes me realize how much we have 'dumbed down' our daily papers." Perhaps the reason for the judge's observation was due to the fact that he realized something our readers have been aware of for some time: an Scdthcin' s newsroom staff goes beyond the mere reporting of the facts. Going beyond mere reporting means getting to the heart and soul of the issues at hand, looking for the story behind the story, and bringing in-depth issues to the heart and soul of our readers. That's exactly what an Scdthcin does and that is why we say an Scdthcin is America's leading pan-Celtic publication. A recent reader's survey indicated that our subscribers agree. On a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the best, the overwhelming majority of readers gave an Scdthdn mostly 4s and 5s in all areas. From the PNPA judge's comments, it is evident that profesional journalists in the mainstream media agree with the reader's evaluation. An Scdth,in does not "water down" the issues of interest to the Celtic community. We bring them to life by presenting from a fresh and personal perspective. 11<.'12*3// .35---Aesi 019%.

Please feel free to 0. examine it at close quarters! 114: 1 Â»a For centuries, Celtic Crosses have been closely , , I identified with the Celtic Christianity that developed in the ... K, British Isles after the Romans left. The unique design pat- .96 tern may be found throughout Ireland, Wales and Scotland, 7. in both inscribed crosses on stone slabs and in free-stand- ing stone crosses used as boundary markers for mones- ; 1 taries and churches, or as devotional aids at the intersec- . , tions of roads. The basic pattern is that of a Latin cross with a circle or disk centered upon the transepts of the cross. The basic symbolism points to Christ's death upon the ,_ 47 Cross. Like all crosses, Christians see them as signs of ~:*~ :.tg-4 j.! ~. Christ's sacrificial, atoning death for God's children, and as . q Â·2 * 4 signs of the great extent of God's love. Many of these crosses . yie .p Â· - 'Mi~*:Illi~v~ are bare, that is, they are not cru-"54.-1: ~cifixes (which carry a representa- j -4.... 1.

A circle is a symbol of eternity - and the Celtic churches saw the circle framing the cross as a symbol say- - ing that what happened upon the Cross of Christ was of eternal significance. The Rev. David Clark The uprights, the arms, and the backs of the larger, free-standing stone crosses are often decorated with relief carvings of Biblical scenes from both Old and New Testaments. Wayne McAfee's Cross reflects this beautifully; take time to examine the scenes on his cross and see if you can identify the Biblical stories or people that they refer to. These 3-D scenes were often used for the benefit of those who could not read, and as a "reminder" for those who might stop to rest or pray around the cross. Some of the finest surviving Scottish examples of these old Celtic Crosses may be found on the Isle of lona, where St. Columbia founded his Abbey in 563 AD. There you will find St. Martin's, St. Matthew's and St. John's crosses. A Scottish Wedding Shawn W. Stansbury and Dana R. Hernandez will be married in a Scottish- style ceremony on Sunday, Sept. 7, at the main stage area of the Festival field at 10 a.m. at the Longs Peak Scottish Hightand Festival.

Longs Peak Scottish Highland Festival Page 90 ; I Clydesdale Horses and Carriage Clydesdales leading a carriage can be seen at y this year's Festival. The Clydesdale is a breed of * - 7*3 C - heavy draft horse developed in and deriving its name : from the district in Scotland, where it was founded. Its -, *, . type was evolved by the farmers of Lanarkshire, through which the River Clyde flows. The old name for Lanarkshire is Clydesdale. 1, It was bred to meet not only the agricultural needs of fl~efifealrd~corfs~~r~~rt~i~h~reema~~~dfso~(~TJ;CrY 210 (1~1 - q Â© 3 haulage on the streets of Glasgow. The breed thus '41 JB "' developed, soon acquired more than a local reputa- tion, and in time, the breed spread throughout the No I 1 4%3% whole of Scotland and northern England. ~~DA The foundation for the Clydesdale developed ..i-iâ€ž.s.~ through a system of hiring stallions from the continent to breed with the native Scottish mares. The records of these hiring societies go back as far as 1837. The Clydesdale alone, of the British breeds of heavy draft, has enjoyed a steady export trade to all parts of the world. The most active trade has been to commonwealth countries and the United States. The Clydesdale is virtually the only draft breed in its native Scotland. The Clydesdale gives the impression of activity, strength and quality with its flowing feather, straight and snappy movement and white socks. Clydesdales are the most popular hitch horse. On the street, in the show ring, or on the farm, their cascading fetlocks lifted into the air, give the breed a grand appearance. The pair of registered 3-year-old Bay Gelding Clydesdales that will be at the Festival belong to J.D. Wiant and his wife Susan of the Fireside Carriage Service in Loveland, Colo. These Clydesdales were purchased as yearlings from Grants Farm, better known as the Busch Estate or the Budweiser Company. They were broken and trained by J. D. Wiant. They will be making their second appearance at the Festival The white carriage was custom built by the Amish in Jamesport Missouri. The heavy black leather show liar- nesses also were custom made by the Amish in Arthur, Illinois. Festival-goers who look closely, will notice that they are spotted with hearts, representing the Town of Loveland. Tartan Day Celebrate Tartan Day on Monday, April 6,1998! April 6 marks the anniversary of the declaration of Scottish independence in 1320 at Arbroath Abbey on the east coast of Scotland. The document included this line: "For we fight not for glory, nor riches, nor honors, but for freedom alone. which no good man gives up except with his life." The observance of Tartan Day commemorates all that is best in Scottish history and culture as well as the great contributions that Scots and Scots-Americans have made to the history and development of the United States. The following nonprofit organizations represent hundreds of Scottish-American groups and hundreds of thou- sands of individuals who care about their Scottish background and heritage: the American-Scottish Foundation Inc., Association of Scottish Games and Festivals, the Caledonian Foundation Inc., Council of Scottish Clans and Associations, Scottish Heritage USA Inc., and Tartan Educational and Cultural Association Inc.
