Description
Dedication
The Harp Competition at the Ohio Scottish Games marked its 30th anniversary in
2014. On behalf of those who have participated in competitions or enjoyed attending
the harp competitions at the Ohio Scottish Games, or harp classes at the Ohio Scottish
Arts School, the members of Scottish Harp Society of America and those who represent
the Scottish American Cultural Society of Ohio, wish to pay tribute to the founder of
our harp competition and organizer all these many years, Dreama Powell.
The Harp Competition was her brainchild in 1984 and Dreama approached the
Clans and the Ohio Scottish Games for support. Dreama shortly became a trustee of the
Scottish American Cultural Society of Ohio and the 1st competition for harp was held in
1985 in Oberlin, Ohio, judged by Tina Tourin.
