We are very pleased to announce that we have taken delivery of our own minibus. We have waited a long time for this and we would like to thank our Madam Chairman, Gill Grant, together with the UMC (Unit Management Committee) for all their efforts in fundraising. Thank you.
UPDATE - The mini bus has had a "face lift", so everyone will know who we are and where we come from!
We held a dinghy sail training course for those cadets that held the YSS Stage 2 qualification so that they might progress to the next level. The weekend was blessed with perfect weather and the most was made of the conditions using a combination of Picos, Toppers and Bosuns.
The Area Drill Competition was held at HMS Raleigh on 2 March 2008. There were eight Districts competing in the Armed Guard section and the Unit was well supported by many family members making the journey to support the cadets. The Team Falmouth came 4th but the markings were close - so to all those in Area watch out we will be back!
AC V Littlewood gave a brave performance in the indivdual piping but missed out on the trophy.
At the District Drill Competition, held at HMS Raleigh on 16/17 February, the Armed Guard from this Unit won the Best Dressed Armed Guard, the Best Armed Guard and the Guard Commander also won Best Guard Commander. In Team Falmouth 2008 were: Cdt Tullin, OCs Paull & Linthwaite, ACs Barringer, Littlewood G, Pearce, Close, Rawlins, Davidson, Fox, Leach & Mitchell. Guard Commander was LC Pett.
AC Littlewood V represented the unit in the Piping Competition, and won. This means she will represent Cornwall in the Piper section at the Area Competition.
Also at this event CPO Pett OiC was presented with a trophy by the District Officer Lt Cdr Gary Truscott, for the Best Unit in Cornwall for 2007. The last time this Units name was on the trophy was 1988!
This could not of been achieved without the dedication of the staff and those cadets who joined in the activities/training made available to them during 2007 - well done to everyone.
