Doddridge County Parks hosts the 2022 Gathering in May. The Gathering concentrates on the music, games, art and family/clan history associated with the Northern tier of Europe and how North Central West Virginia represents that area. Scottish/Celtic ancestry is the largest demographic present in NC WV. Traditional Scottish games will be held with professional competitors taking part. Bands playing music ranging from Scottish, Irish and Blue Grass / Folk will entertain and vendors will provide food ranging from fair food to traditional Scottish fare. New for 2022 will be a rugby tournament and a armored combat display with traditional medieval weapons.

Gathering Mission: To display, educate, and inform residents of West Virginia and surrounding states of the rich Scottish and Celtic heritage found in North Central West Virginia. Showcase Doddridge County Park and the surrounding community.
