Aaron Todd piped several tunes at the Gordon tents (we had two opposite each other on the
row) much to the delight of the crowd. His hornpipes were especially appreciated by the crowd!
And of course the Gordons loved hearing him pipe Cock O' The North in honor of the Chief!
The Gordon tents were always busy! We had quite a crowd gathered, the group
picture to the right is only part of the group assembled over the weekend! Virginia was
represented by Morris Gordon, Barbara Wray, Jim Gordon, David, Lois & Aaron Todd,
Dr. Jim & Abbye Gordon, Isabel Gordon Swift, and Heather Gardner (hope I didn't miss
anyone.)
Our piper, Aaron Todd upheld the Gordon Clan honor by placing 1st in Grade IV Jr. 2/4 March and 5th in Piobaireachd. He earned the most points overall.
