D. J. Satterfield, president of the North American Highlander Association (NAHA), told IronMind®, “We will be holding our inaugural event this weekend, the JWC Highlander in Kirksville, Missourri, with 10 more contests following from now until November.

"We currently have 11 contests listed, with more on the way.  There are varying levels of skill offered with the highlight being NAHA Nationals September 19, in Abilene, Kansas.  We also have 15 state chairs now, so we are very excited about this and the interest that is still growing. We hope to have representation in 20 - 25 states by the end of the year.”
