The Battalion President, Marc Thomson, was delighted to present a Gold Long Service Award to Elaine Michie, Captain of the 1st New Pitsligo Boys Brigade – Public page, at yesterday’s Battalion Parade and Kirk Service.
Elaine has given 31 years service as an Officer of the 1st New Pitsligo starting in 1993! For 3 of those years she has been Captain of the Company. Whilst Elaine is always quick to say she has been Captain for ‘only’ 3 years, its amazing just how far the Company has come on in those three years under her leadership.
The President highlighted the high standard of BB work carried out by Elaine, her enthusiasm and popularity being evident by the cheers from the congregation when she was called forward for the surprise award.
All in the Battalion join with the President in congratulating Elaine for giving over 30 years of quality voluntary service to the 1st New Pitsligo and the Buchan Battalion.
