Thank you for a marvelous Iron Thistle Scottish Festival and Highland Games. The Iron Thistle Scottish Festival was a great success. We want to thank everyone who helped by volunteering their time. After a short breather, we plan to start thinking about and planning on the 2013 Iron Thistle Festival. We want to thank all of our vendors, clans, entertainers and the workshop presenters for continuing to support USCO and the Iron Thistle Scottish Festival. We want to congratulate all of the athletes for demonstrating the Highland Games and their own personal skills. Everyone working together is what brings a little bit of Scotland and Celtic Heritage to Oklahoma. And a most special thank you to our co-sponsors, the Kirkpatrick Family Fund and the City of Yukon, for without them we would never be able to bring the Iron Thistle Festival and Highland Games to Central Oklahoma.
Our next Clan Gathering will be: May 12TH, 2012 Saturday Mothers Day Clan Gathering
