Think you can toss a caber…or a stone or a sheaf?
It looks easy enough… until you actually have to do it. 👀
At the Long Island Celtic Festival & Highland Games, you’ll see the pros from Empire Throwing Club take on the classic Highland events—but you’ll also get a chance to see what happens when the rest of us decide to give it a try.
And for the youngest competitors, there’s the Kids Tug of War—where the stakes are high and the teamwork is serious. 💪
Come watch the throwing, tossing, pulling and cheering next Saturday, August 22! SWIPE 👉 to check out this year’s schedule of events! (You can participate too by signing up on the day.)
🎟️ Discounted tickets are on sale now but go up on August 19. GET YOURS TODAY at the link in our bio!
