Recently we have received numerous calls and e-mails concerning whether or not the Games were happening this year. Please be advised: WE ARE HOLDING GAMES THIS YEAR!!!!!  Nothing has changed; we were simply the victims of some misinformation being sent out. This info also stated that we are a Renaissance Fair. That is also incorrect. We are and have always been a Celtic Festival. For those of you that have received this misinformation, please disregard it as worthless. We apologize for any confusion that may have resulted from these misleading statements. The Eastern Oregon Celtic Society, and Eastern Oregon Throwers are committed to bringing you the finest events possible. Thanks to all of you that pointed out this problem so that it might be corrected in a timely manner.
