This year the squadron will be taking part in the annual Windlesham Pram Race, held on Boxing Day .The event involves pushing a "pram" around a 3.7 mile course passing all 6 public houses in the village.  Many of the prams are highly decorated so that they hardly look like prams at all.  More information can be found at www.pramrace.com

RAFA 

The cadets are keeping an aeronautical theme for their pram in the form of a Red Arrows' Hawk and are using the event to help raise money for the Royal Air Forces Association.

The build is progressing rapidly, pictures can be seen below.  Organisations that have helped the building of the "pram" or fundraising are listed on the right.

UPDATE

The squadron's entry in the pram race won 3rd prize in the best dressed pram competition.
