The Gleneagles Hotel, about 16
miles outside of Perth, Scotland,
has been rated one of the world's
five top hotels.
• Carolapne Doig, who grew up
in Seaforth; is about to exchange
the snow-covered ski slopes.of the
Rocky • Mountains around Banff,
Alberta for the gently rolling .Mils
around the Glerieagle grounds.
Miss Doig will be working as a
waitress at the , Gleneagle, a
British railroad hotel, fot,the next
seven monthS.
She applied to tht,Scottisi&hotel
after a trip to Britain earOr this
year and received a reply almost
immediately. :Since she holds
British passport, Miss Doig
doesn't have to bother with the
red tape of applying for a British
work permit.
The Gleneagles Hotel, built. on
a 700 acre estate, feature three
18-hole golf courses, lawn tennis
courts, lawn boWling, saunas,
indoor swimming pools,a .cinema
and shops - and the staff 'can use,
any of the facilities in their free
time. '
_Although Miss. Doig will be
earning less while working in
Britain, she said, "I'm really
going for the experience."

Her boss at the Banff Springs
HOtel told, her the training she,
would receive in the Gleneagles
dining room would be far superior
to anything she could receive in'
Canada.
Miss Doig originally intended
to work in the 'field of =natural
resources, and graduated from
the University of Guelph with a
degree in agricultural science.
But now she's become a confirm-
ed believer in working at resort
hotels.
When Miss Doig graduated
from University, James Bannon,
another Seaforth resident. invited
her to come out to Alberta and
work at the Banff Springs Hotel
until she found a job in the
natural resources field.
Miss Doig accepted the invitat-
ion, and stayed at the hotel well
over a year, instead Of the original
three weeks she plantied.
The attractions of working for a
resort hotel are obvious - the
money is good, the hotel supplies
board for its staff, and anyone
with an outdoor bent is surround-
- ed by nature.

when she arrived at Banff and
now she's turned into one as well.
For the past three months she
spent part of every day on the
slopes. The mountains also pro-
vide a magnificent backdrop for
hiking, another of Miss Doig's
favorite pastimes,
When Miss Doig started work-
ing at the hotel, she was a
busgift, `::after hardly carrying a
plate before."
Within 1,0 days, she was
promoted to waitress. Since then
she's worked,in the all three of
the, hotel's' lining rooms, includ-
ing the eleg .ant Rob Roy• room
with its French c uisine and
flaming desserts which the wait-
resses perpare at the table.
Eventually, Miss Doig was
promoted another step up. the
ladder. She and another girl were
theonly two, female wine captains
working at the hotel when she
resigned her job to go to Scotland.
Miss Doig said • her fellow
workers at the hotel included
everyone from "doctors to jail-
birds". Many 'of the staff have
post-secondary education and in-
clude lawyers, nurses and teach-
ers. People who love the outdoors
and- spend part ' of each year
travelling.
Banff Springs is 'n-good place
for kids who want to save money
and have a good time", said Miss
Doig. Most of the staff live on the
money .received for tips and bank
their weekly salary to pay for
fiiture trips. I the time she
woriced, at ff, Miss Doig
visited both Bermuda and Britain,
Although Miss Doig will take a
cut in salary by going to Scotland,
she thinks the experience will be
worthwhile and will give her a
chance to visit London, England
and see more of the Scottish
countryside. • 4
Miss Rejs is really following in
her father footsteps- since-be:
spent ten years playing profes-
sional ice hockey in Perth. While
there, he met Carolanne's mother
add Miss Doig said she has
number of relatives in the area.
The move to Scotland will mein
a change of costume for Miss
Doig. While employed as 4
waitress at the Banff Skings
Hotel, she dressed in a Scottish
kilt, in honor of the-fact the town
is-named after Banff, Scotland.
But when she goes to Glen- -
eagle, Miss Doig will be wearing
a more restrained outfit -- a
simple black vest and skirt:
