Glengarry Highland Games Tartan

The Glengarry Highland Games is honoured to present its own distinctive tartan the Glengarry Highland Games tartan.

This tartan was created as a special millennium project. Working with the late Don Smith of Heraldic Graphics in Glasgow, Scotland the Glengarry Highland Games Tartan Committee of Connie Blaney, the late Margaret Arkinstall, and the late Margery Stewart came up with a striking design composed mainly of the red and blue colours of our logo with the addition of green, black and white. A hand woven sample of the tartan was first made by a firm in Newton, North Carolina. This sample was sent to the Scottish Tartan Society in Pitlochry, Scotland to be Officially Registered. Following the registration on November 6th, 1999, Strathmore Woolen Co. in Forfar, Scotland was commissioned to weave the new tartan. In early April 2000 the tartan was completed.

This year we are proud to announce that the Glengarry Pipe Band is wearing new Glengarry Highland Games tartan kilts. The Glengarry Pipe Band has had a close association with the Glengarry Highland Games since it's beginning in 1960. The band has grown in numbers and now there are enough players for three competing bands. The Grade Two Band under direction of Pipe Major Colin Clansey and the Grade Four Band under Pipe Major Ross May will wear the new tartan kilts. Band President Janice McLeod and Piper Bruce McCuaig worked with the Tartan Committee to form this great partnership.
