Put your walking shoes on and get psyched for a day of old-fashioned Scottish fun. But, you don't have to be Scottish to enjoy yourself.

``Everyone's welcome and it's important to walk to see everything at the Scottish Games,'' says Don Martin, a longtime committee member who volunteers each year to help with the 17th annual Scottish Games A Celtic Festival of the Arts at the Altamont Fairgrounds Saturday and Sunday.

Scottish Games evoke strains of hundreds of bagpipes, plaids of all kinds, splashes of more than 300 different tartans, and lots of drummers drumming. Does the aroma of puff pastries, Scottish meat pies, bridies, and fish and chips set your taste buds in motion?
