Highland Day - A Look Back

The Highland Day festival has taken many forms over the years. Origins of the event can be traced back to the early 1900s when Patuxent Grange 311 hosted harvest festivals. Then in the hip 1970s, community members came together to celebrate the 200th anniversary of Highland and a fair was held each spring. Over the years, many prominent Highlanders took charge of the event. Fast-forward to 2005 when the Greater Highland Crossroads Association took over the planning and execution of Highland Day. GHCA has now hosted the event for six years. Photos taken at each of the Highland Day events are made available for your viewing enjoyment below (Some years have not yet been added, so please check back later).
