Squadron Bag Packs

On Saturday, 23rd December cadets from 361 Squadron carried out bag packs at the Sainsbury's Superstores at Washington Galleries Shopping Centre and Team Valley Retail World.

It was most unusual to be able to carry out bag packs simultaneously at two locations on the same day however our cadets rose to the challenge and were able to raise a total of £1,902.44 (plus a few assorted foreign coins!) for the squadron welfare fund at the two venues.

Well done to all the cadets who took part (and the squadron band who played at the Team Valley store) and thanks to Sainsbury's for the opportunity for us to raise some much appreciated squadron funds in this way.
