PORTSOY BOAT FESTIVAL SUCCESS PRAISED BY LOCAL MP
Tuesday 29 June 2010
Banff & Buchan MP Eilidh Whiteford has praised the organisers of the Scottish Traditional Boat Festival on yet another highly successful event.
The MP was joined by MSP Stewart Stevenson and Portsoy councillor Ian Gray as they toured the various stands and exhibits.
Commenting, Dr Whiteford said:
"The organising committee deserve our praise for delivering yet another spectacular Scottish Traditional Boat Festival.
"The glorious sunshine certainly added to the tremendous atmosphere and there was a real buzz, not only around the event but also the whole town. Portsoy can be rightly proud that it has a visitor attraction of national importance which draws visitors from not only the length and breadth of the country but also internationally."
