This year we were asked again if we could assist with the Tewkesbury Half Marathon and staff, committee and cadets spent the morning assisting with parking duties, handing out bottles of water and most importantly handing over the medals to the runners as they crossed the line. A great bit of PR for the unit and well done to all those runners !
With Tewkesbury Sea Cadets winning almost every single trophy at the 2014 District Sailing Regatta, the pressure was on for the team to perform again this year. On a blustery morning late May, the team arrived at Whitefriars Sailing Club. After unloading boats and getting kitted up, the day began with a race brief and a team talk by the unit’s team managers, CI Stuart Bailey and CI Debbie Bailey. It was clear after the first few races that the Tewkesbury Sailors were once again leagues above the rest, and by the end of the day the team had managed to scoop a win in all categories that they had entered, and taking home once again the overall regatta shield!
A huge well done to all members of the team who entered, and to the staff who put the hard work in behind the scenes to make the day such a success with team managing and safety boat driving. Whilst none of the winners are able to go forward to the area competition once again due to holidays, fingers crossed for a strong area team on 2016.
Hoorah ! After our recent RNP, we have been awarded a Burgee which places us within the top 25% of units, throughout the Corps. In addition our results show us to be in the top 5 in the South West Area - an amazing achievement, gaining us a Captains Commendation! We should be immensely proud of ourselves as this is the first in our units history.
A massive thank you to all staff, committee, cadets, parents and supporters for all of their hard work. A few photo's of the evening are shown below, however further photo's are available in our gallery. :)
Seven cadets from Tewkesbury unit joined cadets from Malvern and Stroud for a weekend of First Aid, Seamanship and fun. Other weekends like this will be taking place throughout the year so if you are interested then please speak to a member of staff.
WELL DONE! The hard work paid off with TS Otter winning at unarmed drill again and AC Hayden Green winning best squad commander. We also achieved 2nd place in our piping party. Standby for Area in 3 weeks time!
Next they were off to HMS Raleigh and a huge well done to the squad who came a VERY respectful 5th place with AC Haydn Green achieving a bronze medal for 3rd Best Squad Commander in the South West Area!
Well done to all involved!
Big thanks to PO Hardie and DCDT McGhee for the training and also to all the staff and parents who have supported over the past few weeks.
