TS Vancouver cadets gain $37,000
TS Vancouver Naval Cadets in Albany have received a Gaming Community Trust cheque for $37,840.
The group will use the grant to buy a six-metre outboard power boat that will be used to train cadets and community members in water and boating safety skills.
The cadets plan to use the new vessel to train the region’s 200 Navy, Army and Air Force cadets over the next 12 months.
The group estimates it will be able to train about 25,000 young people and community members in water and boating safety over the next 15 to 25 years.
