Celebrating our th Anniversary the Sacramento Valley Scottish Games and Festival brings together the best of Scottish competitions, entertainment and education.

For our competitors it is the time to demonstrate what they have learned and practiced, to measure themselves against competitors from all over and to excel. For those interested in their Scottish heritage it is an opportunity to learn a bit more, to celebrate their common heritage, listen to the pipes, the harp, and the fiddle and have a great time.

Plus with all the goods vendors a chance to pickup that new kilt, new skirt, book, jacket or other item. Why is it an important event for the non-Celtic community there? In addition to our local community partners who assist us in presenting the Games the larger community joins with us in celebrating the diversity of our area. What are the plans for the event in the years ahead? So we continue our efforts to be friendly to all the volunteers, participants, competitors, vendors, and especially our guests.

I am a direct descendant of William de Lindsay, of Lamberton Scotland I would love to be a part of the event.
