🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 **Scotland may have lost at FIFA... but the Scots conquered America long before soccer!** 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

They crossed the Atlantic with little more than courage, determination, and maybe a set of bagpipes. They helped build communities, businesses, churches, and traditions that are still thriving today—including right here in Houston.

Now it's our turn to keep that legacy alive.

Join us for the **Houston Highland Games Association Annual Meeting** as we celebrate another successful year and help shape what's next for one of the greatest Scottish traditions in Texas.

📅 **Thursday, July 9**
📍 **St. Thomas Episcopal High School**
4900 Jackwood Street, Houston, TX

🚪 Doors Open: **5:00 PM**
🕕 Meeting Begins: **6:00 PM**

We'll hear annual reports, elect officers, discuss plans for the coming year, and continue the work of preserving and growing Scottish culture in the Houston area.

Whether you're a longtime member, a first-time attendee, or simply someone who enjoys kilts, clans, cabers, and camaraderie, we'd love to have you join us.

Because while football matches come and go...

**Scottish heritage lasts forever.**

See you Thursday! Slàinte! 🥃
