Highland Games Schedule for 2008
Note: This parade is fairly easy. There is one turn at the end of the route The Pipe Band will stop at several points along the route play a tune and then continue. In past parades, we were made very welcome; the people along the route were very happy to see us. (Rumor has it that everyone who attends is elegible for the Timothy Lally award).Contact the Post Color Sergeant for further information: Tim Cooke |
A change to the National S.A.M.S. annual membership dues went into effect June, 2004. The dues are now $25.00 per year. Read Rowena Williamson's letter to Tim Lally |

One down and four to go! We had a good showing at the Bellingham games. We conducted the wreath laying ceremony, at the Viet Nam memorial, on both days as in the past. On the Saturday Skye Richendrfer, Chieftain of the Games, placed the wreath escorted by Bob Parrish and Jim Ellrod. On both days we presented service flags at the head of the parade of clans. Again, as in previous years, we were asked to augment the Color Guard for the opening ceremonies on Sunday,.thanks Bob. On Saturday I presented Tim Lally with a plaque, on behalf of the SAMS National Commander, for his services to SAMS over the years and as National Commander. Well done Tim.. I have tickets for the Tacoma and Mount Vernon games. At Tacoma I will have them at the main entrance for those of you who are participating in the CG to pick up. I will pass out the Mount Vernon tickets at Tacoma. If you are going to attend the ceremony at the Marine Corps Rock on August 29th. please contact Tim Cooke at or before the Tacoma games. This event gives us another chance to honor those who served our Country and for SAMS to be seen in public supporting our troops. See you at the games. Peter. |
