A message from your Clan MacNeil Deputy Commissioner of Western NY – “Rochester Bob” McNeill
The Highland Games are coming, and I couldn’t be more excited to share that Clan MacNeil will be the Honored Clan at this year’s event in Lockport, New York! We’ve got a weekend of music, camaraderie, and celebration ahead—and I’d love for you to join me.
📍 Event Details
Date: Saturday & Sunday, September 13–14, 2025
Location: Niagara County Fairgrounds
4487 Lake Avenue, Lockport, NY 14094
Friday Night: I’ll be setting up early, and there’s music and a beer tent—come hang out!
🏴 AGM Plans
We're planning to hold the Annual General Meeting (AGM) on Saturday night after the clan dinners. It’ll be the perfect chance to meet up, share a meal, and talk business once the plates are cleared. Whether you’re new to Clan MacNeil events or a seasoned attendee, this will be a great night to connect.
🛏 Hotel Recommendations
Rather than reserve a hotel block (which means signing contracts), I recommend booking individually at one of the following local hotels. These are close to the games and ranked by convenience:
- Lockport Inn & Suites
- The Lockport Hotel (dog-friendly!)
- Holiday Inn Express – an IHG property, slightly farther but still nearby
If enough folks sign up early, I may be able to negotiate a group rate—so let me know you’re coming!

Yours aye,
~ “Rochester Bob” McNeill
