Presentation to A.T.C    - 9th October 2017

On the 9th of October Stefan and I had the pleasure of presenting a cheque for £500 to the local branch of the Air Training Corps. This was in appreciation of their assistance with the car parking and lake patrol at our annual Jazz Concert in the grounds of Ingatestone Hall, and will be used to help finance their many activities. I mentioned at the presentation that nobody who attended the Concert could have failed to be impressed by their smart appearance and the efficiency with which they undertook their tasks. I also told them that it was thought appropriate for me to make the presentation as I was the only member of our Club who had actually served in the RAF, albeit about sixty years ago when aircraft were somewhat different to what they are now. I also thought it necessary to explain what National Service was, in view of their age, and the fact that we used to have bases all over the world following the end of the war.

We learnt a little about the extensive range of activities enjoyed by the members and were very impressed by the general discipline.

Cheque to A.T.C.  - 10th Oct 2016

On Thursday 19th November 2015, President John Metcalfe presented the club’s cheque for £500 towards the Ingatestone & Fryerning C of E (A) Junior School Minibus Fund.
Pictured with John are Headteacher Neil Taggart and members of the School Council. The plan is for a 17 seater minibus, which will take 15 pupils, a teacher and driver and to use it in many ways. The school have all but reached their target, but still need a little help before they can go ahead. The club are pleased to support a cause which is both local and for the children.
