Oh boy, the demonstrators! These are the folks who give the Games flavor, texture, and fun, while sneaking in a little bit of education and culture as to what life was like for our Scottish forebears. We love our demonstrators and we particularly love watching people experience them for the first time; grins everywhere.

Some of our demonstrators are interactive; you never know when the ability to throw an axe or weave a tartan might come in handy. Others will show you skills you might have acquired as part of clan life back in the day. Our re-enactors are here for you to enjoy and let your imagination transport you back in time a few hundred years.

Long Bow Competition

For those of you with an interest in ancient weaponry we have some intriguing options for you.
In addition to the Axe Throwers (it really is all in the wrist), we are introducing this year an authentic Long Bow demonstration and competition.  Next to this venue will be an amazing Scotsman who is one of the world’s top craftsman in the making of ancient bows and other items that would have been encountered by our Scottish ancestors as they began settling the Carolinas.  You’ll recognize him by the bone in his nose.



If you are a primitive bow hunter or archer, you might like to enter the Long Bow competition, open to the public.
