Highland Games!
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to toss a telephone pole end over end? Well, we hadn’t either until we saw the Scottish Highland Games. Now we can’t get enough! These competitions will last all day and include the Scottish Hammer Throw, Shot Put, Weight over the Bar, the crowd favorite Caber Toss, and more. A World Champion may even show up! You never know what will happen in Sherwood Forest.
