CELTIC CROSSINGS!
Our heart’s in the Highlands June 6-7 when we celebrate the traditional Celtic heritage that lies behind so much of Appalachian culture. Compete for prizes in our Highland Games or get your feet tapping to music of fiddles, pipes and drums. And free admission on this opening weekend for veterans, active military and first responders!
