STIRLING HIGHLAND GAMES INFORMATION APPEAL

My name is Ian Mackintosh.

I am a post-graduate student at the University of Stirling studying M.Sc. Environment, Heritage and Policy. I am undertaking a Directed Dissertaion on the History of Stirling Highland Games 1870-2019 on behalf of Stirling Highland Games Organisation

The Dissertation remit is compile a historical timeline and map as follows-

Dates of Games from 1870-2019 (Including years when no games took place)
Venues used for Stirling Highland Games.
Games Chieftains.
Champions at the Games and compiling lists of winners at the Games.
Events held at the games (Heavy events, Athletics, Cycling, Music and Dance competions)
Was there a unique event for Stirling Highland Games

Following unsuccessful initial approaches to local and national Archive and Libary organisations, I would like to make an appeal to Scottish Highland Games Assn Members and Highland Games supporters forhelp with any information that you may have about Stirling Highland Games;

It may be articles about Stirling Highland Games such as programmes or history pamphlets.
Documents of Minutes from Meetings of Stirling Highland Games Assn.
Images from Stirling Highland Games through the years.
Information on competitors and judges at SHG through the years

If you can help with information about Stirling Highland Games, I would be really grateful as this could help to fill in timeline gaps of the history of Stirling Highland Games.
