New Hampshire Highland Games - known affectionately to many as simply "Loon Mountain". For many of us, this is considered to be a "must do" event. With a weekend of activities, crafts, concerts, workshops, clan tents, and competition at all levels, the NH Games bring it all together in one of the most scenic places in the northeastern US. Parking is always a challenge, but once you are there, it is well worth it.

Nancy Fox Loomis is a piper with Rocky Bay who has a web site that showcases several of her original drawings. Nancy also designed the new Rocky Bay logo.

Pinchbeck Photo - Chris Pinchbeck is one of the most talented photographers in the Northeast. Check out a sample of his portfolio (and photo tips) at this web site.

Catamount Pipe Band - Iain MacHarg is the Pipe Major of Vermont's premier pipe band. Iain and others at Catamount have demonstrated their commitment to improving the quality of highland music by helping us on many occasions.

Just because we play old instruments doesn't mean we are disconnected from the 21st century. Besides, sometimes you just want to listen to good celtic music while traveling, but the way the seats are jammed together in the airplanes makes it hard to play the highland pipes with your seatbelt securely fastened and your tray table in its upright and locked position...

...besides, these are all free and are updated regularly with new material.
