Registration fees (if required) will be collected when you check in at the festival area in Athena. Preferred method of form submission is by email attachment. No digital photos by text, please, unless that's the only way to send it. Please SUBMIT YOUR COMPETED FORM VIA EMAIL NO LATER THAN JULY 1. If you do not have access to email, please print and mail your completed form to Athena Caledonian Games, PO Box 161, Athena, OR 97813 no later than June 25.
NOTE: Overnight security is not provided.
All who register assume all responsibility for damaged, lost, or stolen items.
PARADE: Registration is free. Email your completed entry form no later than July 1 (June 25 if submitting by mail). If you miss this deadline you will be allowed to participate, but your entry will not be included on the list of entries on the Participants page of this website. To reach the parade staging area in the high school parking from Highway 11, take the Highway 334 exit or the Wildhorse Road exit to Highway 334 (Main Street). Staging begins at 7:45 AM. Parade begins at 9:00 AM.
VENDORS: Applications are due via email no later than July 1. Sales booths will be assessed a vendor fee based on the length of the longest side of areas needed by your booth. Although non-sales groups (Clan tents, nonprofits, demonstration booths and reunion groups) are not subject to a vendor fee, donations are always appreciated! Check-in is on Friday evening (6:00-7:30 PM) and Saturday morning (7:00 - 8:30 AM). Call or text either Nick Seltmann (541-969-6929) or Kayla Durfee (541-969-7217) before you arrive at the Food Court or vendor area. A festival host must be contacted before you begin to set up your booth.
Food Court Vendors: The Food Court is on the corner of South Fifth Street and Park Lane across the street from the athletic field.
Park Booths: Clan Tents, Demonstration Booths, Reunion Groups, Nonprofits and Merchandise Vendors: Designated set-up areas are inside the park, accessed by entering through the Third Street gate. Driving on the paved path in the park is allowed for unloading and reloading, but vehicles must be parked outside the park during the day (unless your booth operates out of a self-propelled vehicle). By request of the City of Athena, DO NOT DRIVE ON THE GRASS unless a festival official is present to guide you!
ATHLETES: Please register and pay your entry fee through EVENTBRITE. If field capacity is not reached during online registration, field registration at the football field on South Fifth Street will open at 10:30 AM. The competition begins at noon. Depending on the number of entries, the competition may continue into the evening. Judging will be done by members of the Scottish American Athletic Association. On-site camping and restroom/shower facilities for athletes and their families may be available. A donation of $10 per night or $15 for both nights is requested if you camp on the school grounds. These donations may be submitted at the Information Booth in the park or given to the festival official who visits the camping area each evening.
PLEASE NOTE: The Caledonian Weekend Vehicle Show takes place on Main Street on the afternoon of Caledonian Day but is not part of the Caledonian Games and requires its own registration form. The vehicle show's Facebook page presents all the information you need to know to register and participate. All types of vehicles are welcome. Check-in begins following the Caledonian Parade. Follow the signs to find the vehicle show staging area. If you wish to enter your vehicle in the Caledonian Parade, please complete and submit a Caledonian Parade registration form.
