Jackson might be a small mountain town, but that doesn't mean we don't get our fair share of world culture. From the Jackson Hole Film Festival to Cinco de Mayo celebrations, we're privy to some pretty great global good times. This weekend, it's Scotland's turn to show its stuff when the Wyoming Highlanders come to Teton County Fairgrounds for the 8th Annual Jackson Hole Scottish Festival. Head into town on Friday or Saturday (August 15th and 16th) to get your kilt and bagpipe fix. The festival will take place both days and will include:

Scottish Heavy Athletics
Highland Dancing
Individual Piping and Drumming Competitions
Kids' Athletics
Scottish Clans and Celtic Vendors
Scottish Foods and Refreshments
Bagpipe Bands
Irish Bands
Scottish Battle Reenactment Group
Scots Gaelic Classes
Wolves of Dunvegan
Renaissance Scots

The event is free and doors open at 8:00 a.m. both days. For more information, visit www.WyomingHighlanders.net.
