The second annual Celts ‘n Kilts Festival at Trinity Junior High School was held  March 15 in Fort Smith. Residents raised money for the school by participating in a 5K cross-country race and highland games like caber toss, weight throw, sheep toss and wagon push. In addition to live entertainment from Irish dancers and the Fort Smith Firefighter Pipe and Drum Corps, vendors sold food and handmade items.
