IMPORTANT: Clan Sponsorship must be received by March 1, 2025 to guarantee recognition in the program and a tent on the field. The fee must accompany this signed waiver form to insure the tent reservation. Tent location requests will be accommodated on a first come, first served basis. The contact person listed must be the authorized representative of their Clan or Society.

The field at Rural Hill is open to Clan Sponsors on Friday at 2pm to set up clan tents and pick up packets. Packet pickups end Friday evening at 7pm and will resume Saturday morning at 7am at the will-call tent. It is highly encouraged that clans pick up their packets prior to Saturday AM. Cars are not allowed on the field on Saturday past 7:30am and MUST be off the field by 7:30am. So if your clan has a lot of items to decorate, it would be best to come Friday. However, Saturday AM golf cart assistance is available to help move items if needed.

Please designate a representative for the Call to the Clans ceremony at 8:00 p.m. Friday evening. We request only ONE Clan member act as the Clan Representative on the field. Note – no cell phones are allowed on the field during the Call to the Clans.

The church service will be at 9am in the Cultural Center. The Parade of Tartan will be at noon on Sunday. The Director of the Parade of Tartans is Dave Henderson.

The Kid’s Zone will issue Passports to Scotland workbooks to encourage children to look at and visit the clan tents. Clan Representatives are likewise encouraged to reward the children’s interest by answering questions and/or stamping their passports with the clan’s heraldry.

Best Clan Tent Award Clan tent displays will be judged anonymously on Saturday and/or Sunday and a trophy awarded for first place based on Sunday.

If your clan would be interested in holding your AGM at the Rural Hill Scottish Festival and Loch Norman Highland Games please contact Nicole at Nicole@RuralHill.net – limited scheduling available and is on a first come, first served basis.
