Eastbourne and District Veterans CIC were out promoting Armed Forces Day at the Eastbourne Carnival today! π¬π§
We were proud to be taking part in the parade with the 4 mini tanks that will also be available for rides at Armed Forces Day. The weather was fantastic, and there was a huge crowd lining the streets throughout the day.
The mini tanks were a massive hit with the crowd and brought plenty of smiles along the route!
This year, the mini tanks have been kindly sponsored, and we would like to say a huge thank you to:
Birchwood MG Eastbourne
Begin Driving
Randall's Autos
and Chef Burger for their support.
A special thank you also goes to our amazing and dedicated TANK TEAM - May Martn, Mike Winkler, Mark Michael Reynolds, Tom Rossi-Flint, and not forgetting Mark over the road!! Sarah Meech - who all work hard looking after the mechanics of the tanks throughout the year.
Thanks also to EADVCIC members Daph and Sue, who rode scooters behind the tanks, along with Allan, Dennis, Tim, Arron, Kylie, and wee Fletcher for helping hand out flyers throughout the carnival.
We look forward to seeing everyone at Armed Forces Day! π
