Aviemore snowboard pioneer's Remembrance thanks to Mica
The former soldier who brought snowboarding to Cairngorm Mountain and taught the stars has complimented one former pupil for her contribution to this year's Remembrance events.
Tony Brown, who formed the Snowboard Academy and promoted the sport and the Aviemore resort globally, posted:
"During a yo-yo period in my life with the army, while not on duty I was in Switzerland teaching pop-stars to snowboard for a Channel 4 TV series.
"Tonight one of my pupils, Mica Paris, sang at the Royal British Legions Festival of Rembrance show and I felt so proud.
"It was so cool to see her on the screen for such a special occasion.
"Whoever we are, we must always remember those, who gave their lives for us."
Mr Brown explained: "Mica wasn’t the greatest snowboarder, but she was a lovely person and is an amazing singer.
"Thanks Mica, for tonight."
