KGVI Celebrations
Tuesday 14th November 2017The Annual KGVI Leadership course took place from Saturday 22nd to Friday 28th July 2017. Twelve second years and seven first years took part in a lively and challenging week. Lee Kitson, BB Officer from 7th Londonderry took a session on fencing during the week as a time out activity which proved very popular with the cadets.
A celebration evening was held on Friday 8th September 2017 in the Old Courthouse Antrim kindly hosted by Cllr Paul Hamill, Mayor of Antrim and Newtownabbey Borough Council, to recognise the completion of the 2017 Year 2 KGVI Young Leaders. The ‘Top Cadet’ award was awarded to Megan Anderson from 4th Ballymoney BB Company. The Northern Ireland District is very blessed to have these young people willing to train as BB Leaders and serve in their Churches through The Boys’ Brigade.
The 2018 KGVI residential youth leader training course will take place from Saturday 21st July to Friday 27th July at NIHQ Newport. We would encourage all Captains to consider this opportunity to get young people to train as leaders in BB. It is a fun and practical week where trainees get the opportunity to develop their leadership skills in a safe environment.
