About the Salado College Park
Salado College Park, located at 520 South Main Street in Salado, Texas, is home to the Salado Museum & College Park. The institution's primary mission is to showcase the historical progression and growth of Central Texas while providing a safe space for the preservation and exhibition of important artifacts.
With a connection to the Robertson family, who played a key role in settling hundreds of families, primarily of Scottish heritage, in Texas, the museum offers visitors a chance to explore their Celtic ancestry. Known for hosting Texas' oldest and most distinguished Scottish festival, the institution welcomes US-based Scottish Clan Societies for the three-day Scottish Clans & Highland Games Gathering in November. This event features competitions for Highland Dancers, Pipers, Bands, Scottish Athletic contests, folk performances, and various vendors.
Throughout the year, Salado College Park features the "Wee Scots Shop," an exhibit wing, and a versatile auditorium available for special event rentals. The establishment also boasts a historical memorabilia section showcasing exclusive artifacts and displays curated by the Salado Historical Society members. Additionally, the meeting hall displays fine art, including paintings, and hosts various events such as Genealogy Workshops, Readers and Writers Roundtables, and rummage sales.
The "Wee Scots Shop" offers a range of items for enthusiasts, including family tartan ties, kilt hose, jewelry, books on Texas, local, and Scottish history, Scottish recreation swords, daggers, knives, Highland Games-themed t-shirts, and family history parchments with Clan Crests. The institution's hall serves as a venue for club meetings, family reunions, wedding receptions, counseling retreats, and educational seminars, providing a versatile space for a variety of events. Salado College Park is dedicated to creating memorable experiences for all occasions.
