News ArchivesTHE Scottish left an indelible mark on the Upper Hunter, with many of the earliest white settlers naming townships and properties in honour of their birthplace and on Saturday the organisers of the Aberdeen Highland Games officially unveiled a cairn to commemorate the Scottish connection.
THE first kilts made from the new Upper Hunter Tartan will be aired next weekend at the Aberdeen Highland Games.
ABERDEEN is set to have a cairn, as a contribution from the Aberdeen Highland Games to the community and in recognition of the significant role the Scottish played in the Upper Hunter.
MORE than 4,000 people attended the Aberdeen Highland Games on the weekend exceeding the expectations of organisers who are now planning the 20th games next year.
