<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Times New Roman">The Texas Scottish Highland Games are coming up very soon (June 2-4, 2006). Below is a tentative schedule of events (based on when we’ve done them before), and other information. Tickets and passes for all who have let me know will be available at Moot (though I may be in a tizzy, since I start my new job Monday)</FONT></P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Times New Roman">And, for any late-comers, these are the prices you’re saving:</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Times New Roman">Adults, Saturday $15</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Times New Roman">Adults, Sunday $10</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Times New Roman">Weekend Pass $25</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Times New Roman">Child (6-12) $5</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2 FACE="Times New Roman">And all we ask is a couple or hours of your time for this. Ask anyone who has been there – and see if you really want to miss it.</FONT></P>

So, anything that anyone wants to contribute is welcome.</FONT></P>
