Wilkinsons store in Syston had its Grand re-opening ceremony on Thursday Morning 23rd June and 1181 (Syston) Cadets were invited to attend.
The day began at 08.30 with photos outside the store. Then proceedings moved indoors and the speeches and presentations began. among them were bouquets presented to 4 staff members who between them have amassed 107 years service to the store! The Chairman of the Civilian Committee, Mrs Sharon Bergin was then presented with a cheque to say thanks for the help from the Store Manager. 
The Cadets were then tasked with selling raffle tickets, handing out prize draw leaflets, lollipops and balloons. There were a lot of comments made about how well mannered and smart the Cadets were from members of the Staff and Public. The Store manager also went on to say we would be welcome back at any time!
