Scottish Games Preview This Weekend!

This Saturday is not just another weekend. No, we’re kicking things up a notch at the Travelers Rest Farmers Market. Imagine this: you’re browsing local crafts, your favorite pastry in hand, and suddenly the air fills with the stirring sounds of bagpipes. That’s right, the Greenville Pipes and Drums are marching through, giving us all a taste of Scotland.

Why? Well, it’s a sneak peek at the upcoming Gallabrae Scottish Games. It’s not the full deal yet, but consider it a teaser—a really loud, really Scottish teaser. And if it stirs something in your soul, you can chat with the organizers and snag tickets for the main event. Check out the details about the games here.

Here’s the scoop:

Where: Travelers Rest Farmers Market, Trailblazer Park

When: This Saturday, bright and early at 8:30 AM till noon.

What’s happening: Bagpipes, drums, and a whole lot of Scotland.

And hey, since you’re there, why not dive into what the market has to offer? With over 85 vendors showing off everything from organic veggies to artisan soaps, there’s a ton to explore. Feeling the mid-morning munchies? Hit up a food truck or two. Got kids? There’s stuff for them to do too. Plus, if you’re using SNAP, we double what you spend on fresh food—it’s a win-win.

So, come for the bagpipes, stay for the market. It’s not just shopping; it’s an experience—a chance to feed your belly and your soul all in one go.

Catch you there?

Cheers,
