12th Clacton Scouts visit the Lifeboat on Thursday 5th June 2008


On Thursday evening the 12th Clacton Scouts visited our station with their leader Alan Moss. They were all shown around the boat to see how a lifeboat is used to save lives at sea. We would also like to thank Allan for raising lots of money for the station with his running, as well as other fundraising events that take place with Chapman's the Butchers on the Triangle. THANKS.
