The rain stopped just in time as the parade made its way from Norfolk Row to the Peace Gardens where the crowds were addressed by the Lord Mayor, Vickie Priestly.
On 16th June, cadets from throughout South Yorkshire district attended a fundraising event at Elsecar Heritage Centre in aid of the New Ship Appeal. This is a National Ship Appeal Initiative to raise £5.6 million in order to replace the Corps' flagship T.S. Royalist.
The weather was considerably better than it had been in recent days and everyone had a really good day. After a long and enjoyable day, we managed to raise a total of £150.82. Thank you to MC Colbeck for representing T.S. Sheffield on what was supposedly Father's Day!
On 15th June 2013, the second annual inter-service day was held at Barker's Pool which was attended by cadets from the sea, army, police and fire services. This event gave the opportunity for people to come along and meet cadets from each of the services, to learn more about their roles and to find out about the various activities and opportunities available to them. The event was also attended by the High Sheriff Lady Sykes, Lord Mayors from the county and the Police & Crime Commissioner for South Yorkshire.
On 14th June 2013 a curry night was held at the Unit as a fundraising event. Guests were welcomed by an array of starters set out upon brightly decorated tables, it didn't take long for the room to fill up. Next came the delights of various curries and rices to choose from, people were spoilt for choice so most ended up having a taste of each. The meal was finished off by a colourful display of fresh fruit kebabs. Compliments to the chefs for the fabulous food.
This night also held a special birthday suprise for one of our staff members as Dan was presented with a birthday cake. Many Happy Returns. This was followed by a raffle with lots of prizes on offer and then to a quiz which put us all to the test. A very good time was had by all who attended.
A very big thank you to go to the chefs of the evening - Yvonne, Shabana, Lisa and Usha. Also to Dave for sorting out and comparing the quiz and to those who donated raffle prizes including the City Hall for donating two tickets for a show and Clowne Test & Repair Centre for a free MOT service. We manged to raise £267.
