Join us at Long Branch Park in the wee morning hours of Saturday, August 9 and allow us to bring Scotland to you. The aroma of Scottish and American Food, the skirl of pipes, the cadence of the drums, the awe of massed bands, the beauty and form of the dancers, the strength of the athletes and the feeling of clanship all contribute to hours of nostalgia and pure enjoyment!

Movies now start at 9pm in order to achieve optimul viewing. We look forward to seeing you in the parks!

What kind is your favorite? Empire? Macintosh? Cortland? Whatever your choice, there are tons of local apple orchards within a 15 minute drive of downtown for you to sink your teeth into.
