   Announcing the 2016 Wisconsin highland Games, held at the Waukesha expo center Sept 2nd -4th
As always it will be an open competition: men , women , pros , amateurs , masters . All competing against one
Another using appropriate weights. Like last year the first two events will be qualifying events to keep the field manageable 
And competitive. Everyone having an equal chance at cash prizes each day. We are very proud to be one of the only Highland games to throw both the Caldonian ( Scottish) events on Saturday and the Hibernian (Irish) events on Sunday . We are also extremely pleased to welcome back as judges Craig Smith and Kerry Overfelt .
