The 4th Annual Brigadoon Beltane Festival
10AM - 6PM
Maize Valley Market & Winery, 6193 Edison Street NE (State Route 619) just east of Hartville, Ohio.

The Scottish American Society is sponsoring its fourth annual Brigadoon Beltane Festival on Saturday the 31st of May 2008 at Maize Valley Market & Winery, 6193 Edison Street NE (State Route 619) just east of Hartville, Ohio. The Brigadoon Festival formerly held in Burton is no longer a part of their program, so we are incorporating it into ours.

Opening ceremony is at 10:00 am, closing ceremony at 6:00 in the evening. The MacCallum Highlanders Pipes and Drums will perform at the opening and throughout the day. Admission cost is 8 and under free - over age 8 will be $6.00 - $20 for family. No genetic testing.

This is the fourth year for the festival and it is bigger and better than ever. There are highland athletic events (including caber tossing - the caber being a close relative to our telephone pole) and a strong man competition.

Traditional music from Scotland, Ireland, and Wales will be featured via bands and through J & C Entertainment. Highland cattle will be there to be admired, the Vikings will be re-enacting their invasion of Scotland, and Highland soldiers may be seen strolling the grounds. Many vendors will be selling goods of all kinds.

The Canadian Women’s Auxiliary Drill Team will perform, as will the Welsh Country Dancers from Columbus. The award winning Tigh Na Creige Highland Dance Group will present traditional highland dance, and the Heather Belles will perform more contemporary highland dance routines.

Scottish Country Dancers from Kent, Ohio will demonstrate dances anyone can easily learn. There will also be story tellers, Celtic harpers, a demonstration of “waulking” the wool, sheep shearing, traditional food and beverages at reasonable cost, wine tasting for the adults, and a book sale area.
