Description: Antigonish Highland Games Program 1971 Nova Scotia, Canada. Was fortunate enough to attend several times. The bag piping alone was worth the trip. Selling only - because its time. The program is pretty self-explanatory. The Antigonish Highland Society was founded in 1861, about 75 years after the Gaels first began arriving on nearby shores. At its first meeting, the new Society elected Dr. Alexander MacDonald as its president and approved the Society's objectives of perpetuating the language, music and traditions of the Highland Scot and assisting their fellow Gaels in times of need. The Society celebrated St. Andrew's Day that year and two years later held its first Highland Games on Apple Tree Island in the east end of town. Since then, the Society had sponsored more than 150 Highland Games while supporting the Gaelic language, piping and drumming. Highland dancing, fiddle music and step dancing, athletics and the Ancient Scottish Heavy Events. (From the Society)
