The purpose of the Facebook Group is to act as an extension of the Website and NOT to replace it. Posts from the website will be automatically forwarded to the Group. The Group is Administered by Staff and Cadet SNCOs.
The Group can be found at http://www.facebook.com/groups/2358atc/
Note that the pre-existing Facebook account will now be closed down and all members removed.

The Squadron will be hosting cadets bound for Jersey Camp overnight on Tuesday 14 August 2012. This will require the erection of both our 12×12 tents before 1730 and taking down the tents the following morining shortly after 0730. This is particularlu important as the grass area around the hut is a building site and we do not want the tents squashed by a digger! We have two cadets attending the camp so this will be helping them out.
Therefore I am looking for volunteers to assist with putting the tents up on Tuesday 14th August from about 1630 to 1730, and then to assist in taking them down again on the morning of Wednesday 15 th August from about 0700 to 0800. Iknow its early in the morning but it is the school holidays so you can have a lie in the following day!

As promised further details of the course:
The purpose of this course is to develop the leadership skills of the NCOs and Senior cadets on the Squadron. It does not replace the WIng JNCO and SNCO Courses, nor does it give any extra status to cadets who are not NCOs attending the course.
The course will run from 0900 on Saturday to 1600 on Sunday. Dress will be CS95 throughout the weekend, cost will be £10.00 to cover food for the weekend. Joining Instructions will be posted shortly.
The weekend will consist of leadership lessons, drill instruction, a night exercise and leadership command tasks. There is no assessment for the course or tests, students will be given feedback throughout the weekend as the aim of the course is to develop leadership skills not to test them.
We will be joined by cadets from 130 and 149 Squadrons.
All NCOs are invited to attend the course.
The following cadets are invited to attend the course
