Road Marching
Do you enjoy getting out and about and keeping fit? Do you enjoy working as a team, seeing new places, and pushing yourself to achieve your best? If so, Road Marching may just be the activity for you! Road Marching events are a great way to meet cadets from around the UK and even around the world, as you have the opportunity to take part in events such as the RAF WARMA two day march, Scottish Garelochhead two day march, International Waendel Walk, Nijmegen, and more!
