In addition to these we will have an exhibition of vintage cars, a hands-on 'have a go' highland games that the kids will love, displays of local woodcarvings, pottery and other crafts and a gallery showcasing the work of some of the best local artists and photographers. There will also be a number of local associations and community charities on hand throughout the day providing details of their important work in the Moray region. We're always busy planning for the next Games so please follow our Facebook, Twitter or Instagram page for updates and news.
