Thank you Audie Gibson (and family) for all the hard work you have given to the Scottish Culture and Heritage over the last 30 + years.

Thank you for your many years of dedication to preserving Scottish heritage in Northeast Florida Audie E. Gibson !

On August 8th your Saint Andrews Society of Jacksonville started a new tradition to kick off our fiftieth year: choosing someone to honor on the anniversary of our founding. Audie was an obvious choice as our first ever recipient. His influence with the committee for the Northeast Florida Scottish Games & Festival and the enduring partnership with The Saint Andrews Society of Jacksonville has been unwavering for more than three decades. That stewardship echoes in the four generations shown here and will carry on in those to come.

We thank you so much Audie for your presence and all those in attendance to celebrate this wonderful person!

Yesterday I had the honor of delivering a donation to our charity for 31st Annual Games.
Each year we choose a local organization or charity to receive a donation. For our 31st Games we chose AMIKids of Clay County. For past several years they bring out several of the students from the program to assist with set up and tear down of the festival.

Friends and Family of our Games.

We received notice of our Friend and long time member, Richard "Dick" Cardell passed away after a medical illness this past Saturday.

Will post service information as soon as possible.

Dick hosted our Genealogy table for many years during our Games and will be greatly missed.

Rest in Paradise dear friend.

Good Morning to the family and friends of our Games

I wanted to send out a heartfelt thank you to all of our Board Members, Committee Chairs, Committee Members, Sponsors, Volunteers, Vendors, Clans/Society's, Pipes and Drums, Bands, Entertainment, and most importantly ALL of the Patrons that made our 31st Annual Games a Success!

We could not have done this without everyone's help and support.
This year was a trying year. We had severe weather that hampered Vendors and Visitors traveling from up north, severe drought that threatened our Firework show, amongst other delays and hiccups. But we persevered, opened our Gates on time, and welcomed our Guests.

Planning for our 32nd Annual Games is in the works, and I cannot wait to see what it brings.

Our 32nd Annual Games will be on February 27, 2027! Hope to see everyone there!

Slainte'
Shawn W, President
