Some 25 Cadets and 7 Instructors where involved in the band camp over the Easter weekend. These camps are great as it allows both Corps of Drums Detachments to practice and play as one unit, as they are for public displays. On the subject of displays the cadets were part of the St Ives 900 Parade on the Saturday morning. The parade was in celebration of the 900-year anniversary of being granted its Fair Charter, the Lord Lieutenant of Cambridgeshire Hugh Duberly, CBE took the salute. Saturday evening saw the more senior members put on a small concert for the basic cadre with Sgt Duncan Elliott as Drum Major for both events. At the end of the weekend all the cadets received and Easter egg.
