The parade Thursday night before the games, the streets of Fergus Downtown ring with the sound of bag pipes and the energy of a highland fling.

Tattoo A taste of the games. The brawn of the Heavy Events, the music of the Pipe Bands, the grace of the Highland Dancing and the meeting of the clans.

The 69th Games featured a tribute to mark the 100th anniversary of Canada’s participation in World War 1 and the thrill of the Simultaneous Caber Toss Guiness World Record ... 52 cabers!
