The 2013 Games will be September 15, 2013

Yessiree!  We finally settled on a date for the 2013 RJM Highland Games!  So mark your calendars for September 15, 2013.  Yes, that is a Saturday and so our Schedule of Events will be a little bit different this year.  The Scottish Breakfast will begin at 10:00am.  Bring your favorite contribution--breakfast casserole, fruit, pastries, etc--and we'll all share the wealth and spend some time visiting.  The Wee Highlanders Games will start at Noon, so bring the kiddies for plenty of fun and Kodak moments!  We'll start the Official Games at 2pm with the Heavy Events first and the FootRace to wrap up the day before we crown this year's winner (just like the Olympics, right?  We'll maybe even play the National Anthem!)  Then to put the icing on the cake, we'll have a bonfire and weenie roast to feed the mighty warriors before they make their way home.  Whatever you bring to share, we'll eat it!  And we'll roll out the entries in the Baking Contest for dessert--same categories as in the past--Cake, Pie or Cookies--but only one entry per person this year, please! So pack up your picnic baskets and your lawn chairs and head on out to Windy Hills Farm for the Annual RJM Memorial Highland Games--it will be a day worth waiting for!
