Vote now for Nevada's tartan in kilt contest, coordinated by Northern Nevada Celtic Community
Local resident William Puchert has an online campaign underway to get kilt manufacturer Sport Kilt to offer the Nevada State Tartan through their Design Your Own Tartan Contest. They offer kilts and products for less than $100, which is more affordable to getting the tartan fabric and having it made, which places the costs into hundreds of dollars. Sport Kilt already offers a California State Tartan. The contest deadline is Nov. 1 a day after Nevada Day!
The kilt manufacturer has told Puchert if he can show a significant demand for the tartan style, they would consider offering it as one of their products next year.
You may vote for his submission and vote by following this link.
Puchert, who coordinates the Northern Nevada Celtic Community entry in the Nevada Day Parade, thinks Sport Kilt’s products with the state tartan would be a popular item at both Reno and Las Vegas Games as well as the Nevada Legislature and all those who have Nevada pride.
The Nevada State Tartan (link below) was designed over 20 years ago by a Las Vegas Bagpiper Zygmunt Pawlowski who offered it in the public domain and was adopted as the official state tartan in the 2001 Legislative Session as NRS 235.130. The colors and design of the tartan represent the features that make Nevada a unique and bountiful state.
