Gliding update

Good morning all,

Gliding is still a go for the morning group. There will be another post coming out closer to the start time of the afternoon group to confirm that we are still a go.
Cadets going gliding this morning make sure you dress for the weather and bring your health card, water bottle and own snacks. All cadets gliding must have a signed permission form before gliding.

Thank you
