Sunday October 19th 2008 will be an extremely important day for the Rugby Sea Cadet Unit, when they host the Warwickshire District Sea Cadet Trafalgar Parade 2008. This event, which takes place annually, commemorates the Battle of Trafalgar and celebrates the victory or Vice-Admiral Lord Horatio Nelson’s British Fleet over the combined French and Spanish Fleets on October 21st 1805. Although an annual event, Rugby Sea Cadet Unit only get to host the parade once every 10 years, the last being of course in 1998. This year over 200 Sea Cadets, a Guard of Honour and Massed Sea Cadet Band from across Warwickshire will descend on Rugby for the parade through the streets of Rugby and service at St Andrews Church in Church Street Rugby. More information on the planning of the parade coming soon . . .
