Hi all,

Good news!  We're going to have a games this year!  We've had some issues finding personnel for all areas of the festival, as our volunteers get older and older, so -- remember! -- consider volunteering to help out with the planning/setup of your local games!

Big special thanks to the members of NHScot that are coming down to help keep RIScot alive!

Also, shoutout to all our friends at the Glasgowlands Highland Games that have been promoting RIScot on their web site!

I'm looking at running Pro, Masters, Amateur, Lightweight, and Women's classes this year.  Thumbs Up

Pros, invites ARE STILL BEING WORKED.

RIScot // Sat, 9-June-2018 // 9:00am Start // Rain or Shine
Washington County Fairgrounds, Richmond Townhouse Rd, Richmond, RI
Directions: http://goo.gl/maps/fL1YJ


Please fill out the following registration form and mail it to me with your check (or, be smart and buy a ticket online using PayPal and save money; simply send me the receipt with your registration form).  Please read all of the directions contained within the form.  Any questions, please feel free to message me on here, Facebook, or via e-mail.

Registration: http://www.riscot.org/forms/riscot_athleticForm_2018.pdf (PDF) (Please note t-shirt size!)

Official Web Site: http://riscot.org (Directions, lodging, other info.)

Official Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/riscot (Please like us and share!)

First come, first serve on open registrations.  I will cap entries, if necessary.  Please have your entries postmarked by Wed, 06-June-2018 to account for USPS delivery time.

Online tickets are $2 off regular admission.

I'm trying to get t-shirts again this year, but no guarantees.  Please include your t-shirt size on the registration form anyway.

And, of course, I'll be looking for volunteers to help judge, score, and generally take care of the games with me.  Shoutout to Mark Howard for already stepping up to the plate to help.

Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

Thanks!

Cheers,
Scott

My husband Tim can help out if you need more volunteers. He has pulled tape and even started learning caber scoring at Casting Day in Charlton.
