On September 18, 2021, Argyle honored its Scottish heritage with a Thistle (national flower of Scotland) Day community celebration after a nearly 100-year hiatus. The celebration has continued yearly since and now includes a bonfire and fireworks along with scottish games, music, food and drink, and community booths.
