Athletics
 
  From Scotland's highlands and lowlands, it's pipes & drums, song 
  & dance, fiddles, harp & guitar. And bringing it all together is the
  Panama City Highland Games and Scottish Festival. You'll enjoy 
  fine performers, delicious Scottish food, highland athletics, Celtic 
  dancers, clan tents, and  historical exhibits as we capture the spirit 
  of the highlands. Immerse yourself  in this unique event! 
 
  Our festival abounds with the thrilling sound of the bagpipes and 
  drums,  exciting competitions, and joyous celebration of  Scottish 
  and Celtic heritage and culture. Feel the blood race as the Massed 
  Bagpipe Bands  take the field playing "Scotland the Brave".  Sing 
  along with Celtic musicians in the Tartan Tea Room. Shop at the 
  Exhibitor Tents for Scottish and Celtic items you won't see else-
  where, such as highland attire and historical weapons. Enjoy a 
  scone, a cucumber sandwich or a Scottish egg. Make your way 
  to the Heavy Athletics field and marvel as kilted Scots compete at 
  traditional events such as tossing the 19 foot caber.
 
  In light of the many Scots who were early settlers in our area, the
  Panama City festival is a fitting site for a highland gathering. You 
  might meet a distant relative at the Clan Tents. The Scottish 
  festivities don't end as the sun sets and the crowds leave the grounds 
  of  Grace Presbyterian Church. The popular Ceilidh (KAY-lee)  
  awaits you in the evening and the celebration continues!  Celtic 
  musicians and performers will continue the excitement well into 
  the night. It's all here at the Panama City Highland Games and 
  Scottish Festival. 
 
  Sunday following the Festival at 10:45 am, a special service, the
  Kirkin' of the Tartan, is held in the sanctuary of Grace Presbyterian.
