Army Cadets on Parade from Invercargill Cadet Unit
On Wednesday, 26th November, members of the 2025 Oktoberfest committee—Karen, Arsalan, and Sally—returned to the Army Centre for another event.
Their visit was to present a donation from the proceeds of this year’s Oktoberfest event, held on Saturday, 11th October at the Army Centre.
25 cadets were on parade, showcasing the spirit and discipline of the unit.
After the parade, the committee presented the donation to Lt David Lee, United Commander, with Captain Rua Dawson, Army Cadet XO, also in attendance.
Committee members were presented with a unit patch and a medal for the Club and conversations have already begun about future opportunities to collaborate.
