Tartan Days

Glencoe is celebrating its Scottish Heritage with Tartan Days! Thursday, Friday, and Saturday the stores are ready with their wares on the sidewalk and plenty of bargains to be had. Many are taking part in the "Say What?" contest for shoppers to guess the meaning of Scottish words. Three lucky winners of elementary school age, high school age and 'older than high school' age will win prizes valued at $70, $150, and $200.

On Friday 'Art in the Park' will start at noon at the Train Station and St. Charles School is holding a fundraising BBQ there too. A Show and Shine Car Show will take over Main Street at 5:00 and a Tractor Pull will complete the evening events. The sidewalk sales and "Say What?" contest continue all day.

Saturday brings free pancakes from 9 to 11 at the Train Station provided by the Rotary Club of Glencoe. Cheer on the Swim Team at the Glencoe Pool Swim Meet from 8 to 1. The "Say What?" contest will conclude at 4:00 after which the three winners will be determined.

This is the weekend to find yourself in Glencoe!
