And in sad, sad, very sad news…
The Dixon Highland Games are no more. The venue managers at Mayfair have raised the rates to prohibitive levels; several events, such as Lambtown, have had to relocate. The Dixon Games had arranged to relocate to the Travis Credit Union Park in Vacaville, but now that venue will be closing down at the end of this month.
It’s possible that the Travis Credit Union Park will still honor its contract with the Dixon Scottish Cultural Association for September, but don’t hold your breath. 🙁
A sad, sad, day indeed.
For us, though, moving to Sacramento means more easy access to cool events like this. That’s one of the many reasons I’m looking forward to the move.
And oh yeah, there is a Highland Games going on in Woodland today. I completely forgot about that. Dangit, why do I always remember these things when it’s too late?
