The McPherson Scottish Festival and Highland Games will be hosting the 2015 IHGF All American Highland Games Championships, and the winner will be invited to the 2016 IHGF World Amateur Highland Games Championships.

“The IHGF are very happy to be working with Athletic Directors for the McPherson Games—Dave Glasgow, Larry and Terri Ventress of the Heart of America Scottish Athletics (HASA) for making this event happen,” said IHGF president Francis Brebner.

“To be part of the McPherson Games tradition is already a huge honor and thrill,” said Brebner, “but to have a chance to also compete next year in Fefore, Norway gives this competition even more luster, so we are confident that all competitors will be bringing their A game to McPherson.”

The 2015 McPherson Scottish Festival and Highland Games will be in Lakeside Park in McPherson, Kansas, September 26-27.
