On Saturday a group of our cadets arranged a bag packing session on the tills at Morrisons to raise funds for their upcoming trip on the Brixham Trawler Leader. Sporting brand new WQSC hoodies bearing our new Avocet, the team also made good use of the club’s new promotional banner.

The bag packing raised the amazing sum of £521 and the cadets were wonderful ambassadors for the club. The next bag packing session is set for this weekend (Saturday 16th February) at the Tavistock branch of Tesco. The cadets will be on duty from 10.00 am until 2.00 pm.

In addition to raising funds, the cadets activities also helped raise the profile of our club and there have been several enquiries about membership.

Update!

On Saturday 16th the Leader cadets enjoyed another successful session bag packing at Tavistock’s Tesco store.  Again the cadets were  great ambassadors for the club; helpful, polite and willing to talk to the customers.  It was considerably quieter at Tesco’s, but the customers were quite generous.  £274.71 was collected, bringing the total for the two days to an amazing £796.  A marvelous total.  Well done to all.

The more sharp eyed of our readers will have noted that the design of the Avocet on our club emblem has changed slightly. The new design has been incorporated in the club burgee and the first batch featuring the new style have now been delivered.

They are available in two sizes of 15″ & 18″.

 

15” Burgee         Price = £26.90

18” Burgee         Price = £29.30

 

Demand for our new burgees has been strong so we only have 3 of the 18” and 5 of the 15” left. Once these have all been allocated a new batch will be ordered.

Contact our club secretary Rosie Hinge rosie@dhamarinedesign.co.uk to secure your new burgee.
