Mayor of Pembroke Dock, Clr. Peter Kraus, was delighted to attend a garden party organised by Commander Tony Mason, president of the Pembroke Dock Sea Cadets, last week.

Said Clr. Kraus: "The garden party was held to raise funds for the sea cadets building in the naval dockyard.

"The building that they have is in need of a new fire alarm system which costs many hundreds of pounds.

"Quite a few guests attended the party and were hosted by the fantastic service of the sea cadets themselves."

He continued: "My wife Doris and myself were very proud to be invited to such a worthwhile cause and would not have missed it for the world.

"I was so honoured to be able to meet everyone at the event and be able to give a speech to congratulate everyone involved in the organising.

"To see these young cadets perform is a real eye opener and should be awarded for their loyalty and service. Well done to you all."
