Last Friday at the lake, cadets did some on-shore rope work practice, looking at boating knots and practicing with a heaving line. Cadets practiced the reef knot, bowline, figure of 8 and rolling hitch - all are essential knots to master for boating.
A huge thank you to Leeds based business, Engineering Plastic Supplies Ltd, who have generously donated £500 to our Transforming TS Cleopatra Fund this month. This brings our current donation total to £5,410!
We still have a long way to go to reach our £175,000 target, but every donation brings us a step closer.
At Harrogate Sea Cadets we are embarking on a ambitious fundraising campaign to raise the necessary money to transform our Unit headquarters - TS Cleopatra. The transformation will include:
Converting the existing boat shed into robust building and partitioning into three sections: store, specialist marine engineering workshop and new galley.
Moving galley from existing location into new conversion and converting old area into two separate classrooms
Converting existing Heads (toilet) area to include provision for gender neutral toilets and a new, spacious accessible wet room.
To make it easy to donate, we are on JustGiving and you can read more about us and the campaign there.
Another great Friday evening at the lake last week. We practised anchoring and weighing anchor - an essential skill for rowers to learn and a key component of rowing qualifications.
Sailors were also out, honing skills towards their sailing qualifications.
Fantastic work by all.
