Brief info about the games
Located in the mountains of North Georgia, these Games provide a refreshing break from the southern summer. Clan tents are located along a cool mountain stream feeding nearby Lake Nottely. Lots of vendors, pipe bands and athletics are there for your enjoyment both Saturday and Sunday. The Sunday morning Kirkin’ o’ the Tartan service, delivered by a local Presbyterian minister in a thick Scottish brogue, makes it worth getting there early. A two hour drive from Atlanta makes this an easy day trip for those who live there. Mountain cabin and lakeside home rentals also make for a great weekend getaway.
