It's that time of year y'all. Time to get your names in for the Maine Highland Games. Sam Denson and I will be AD-ing the games again this year. We will be having all the normal classes as usual.
Date: Saturday, August 15, 2015 Where: Topsham Fairgrounds, Topsham ME What: A Wicked Awesome Time Am A Am B Masters Ladies and of course Pro' Pro Lineup Mike Zolkiewicz Jeremy Gillingham Nathan Burchett Beau Fay Jeff Kaste and this year taking the 6th spot, "Leroy's Spot", a spot held open for a new pro we have Maine's own Rob Meulenberg! If you are interested in competing please contact Sam and I here or at mainehighlandathletics@yahoo.com so we can get you on the list. We have already had some early interest from outside New England and I encourage everyone out there who might want to spend a few summer days on the beautiful coast of Maine to come on up and throw. As in years past there is no registration fee, I will be sending out free tickets to all those who register. If you would like to pre-order tickets for your friends or family at a lesser cost let me know and I can help facilitate that. Also looking for volunteers to help, free ticket and free t-shirt, the more the merrier. If you have any family or friends who would like to help please please send them my way. Can't wait to see you all. Alison Tostevin |

I plan on coming out of retirement and throw for the first time in like 7 years in Maine. Sign me up for the master's class.
Hopefully you can find an adequate replacement to judge the Pros?

Roster as of 7/29/2015. If I do not have your t-shirt size make sure you send it to me ASAP. If I dont have it before this weekend I will guess and you will be stuck with whatever it is I come up with. I will be sending out information on how to get in to the games, as a money saving measure I am not going to be mailing out tickets. We will have an athletes only gate, and there will be a list at the gate that will get you (and only you) in for free. Anyone else in the car will need to pay and can do so right there at the gate. I will be sending out directions and an address to use with a GPS to get you in to the right gate. This gate will allow you to park right on the field without driving through the grounds.
I could really use one more lightweight!!! Call all your skinny friends and get them out to throw, we need just onemore to make it legit!! No Tony you cant cut a leg off to make weight. If you have any questions please let me know. More info in the coming days. I cant wait to see you all. Alison AM A Bill Wadell Duncan McCallum Carlton Shedrick Sam Denson Tony Robinson Mike Berby Scott Sideleau Am B Justin Fisher James Fuller Joshua Plumb Josiah Bohn Chirs Jones Ryan Martin Rick Haenel Eric Ricker Arron Fyfe Lightweights I NEED ONE MORE!!!! Someone help out!! Carl Lewandowski Jacob Jones Masters Scott DePanfillis Al Dargie (scratch, will be greatly missed) Hapy Mayer John McElreath Robert Sims Chris Blackie Ian Nicoll Scott Mathieson Simon Cormier Ladies Alison Tostevin Angela Ostle Jenna Fairbairn Summers Denise Houseman Melissa McElreath Katie Richardson Amy Shedrick Cindy McDonough Pros Jeremy Gillingham Will Barron Mike Zolkiewicz Rob Meulenberg Jeff Kaste Nate Burchette Beau Fay Let me know if I have forfotten anyone. Things I also need to know if you have not given me the info already |
