Anvil Launch and Trebuchets!!
Every Scottish Fest since the beginning has started and ended with the boom of black powder and the billowing grey smoke of the infamous anvil launch.
Tickets may be purchased for the Split-The-Pot anvil launch that ends the festival and games. If the anvil lands nearest to your plate (paper, of course), you win! You'll split the pot with a local charity or service organization.
The trebuchets are a crowd favorite for heaving objects of all sizes into the air and down the field.

Bonny Knees Contest
Kilted men are known for turning a fine leg and showing off their knees. A blindfolded panel of women awaits the bravest of you to present their knees to be judged, bonny or boney in The Bonny Knees contest. Appreciative spectators cheer on their champions making sure to protect their identity as the judges skilled hands look for excellent bone structure, strength of calf, and skin texture. He who is chosen the Bonniest Knees receives the praise of the crowd and a wee special reward.
Celtic Crafts
Both traditional and modern crafts can seen at this year's festival, including the Desert Fiber Arts Guild spinning and weaving.
