Mike Elston Selected for the Minuteman Award

     At Spring Leadership Mike Elston was selected for the Minuteman Award, which will be awarded to him at the Congress in California this Summer.  Mike is well known to Virginia compatriots for his service to the Virginia Society, including being our president in 2017-18.   Mike has also been very active at the National level, and this service is being recognized by the SAR's highest individual honor.  To quote the NSSAR Handbook: "The Minuteman Award is the highest award presented to a Compatriot for active and distinguished service rendered to the National Society. Annually at the Spring Leadership Meeting, the Minuteman Committee (appointed by the President General from members holding the award) will select and announce no more than six award recipients for the current year."
     Mike Elston has contributed much to our National Society and the Virginia Society is extremely proud to see his contributions recognized by this high honor.
