Fireworks Night

Family, friends, previous and current members of Launceston YFC had a great evening enjoying a fantastic fireworks display and bonfire hosted by our Chairman Nathanael Thomas at his family's farm. Whilst watching the fab display coordinated by Luke Uglow, spectators enjoyed burgers, hot drinks and warming themselves by the bonfire!

Carnival

To continue the celebration of the clubs 70^th anniversary year, it was decided that would be the theme for this years carnival float. A vibrant and colourful float with members dressed in all things that make up Launceston YFC entertained the streets of Launceston, Camelford and Holsworthy.

Sheep Selection and Grading Event

For club night members went to Truro Livestock Market for a very interesting interactive event in which members could get hands on grading lambs. Our club member Nick Uglow matched the judges grades and walked away with a box of chocolates! The evening also featured a butchery demonstration and the chance to wear virtual reality glasses to view different lamb carcasses in 3D.

Cornwall YFC sports day

15 members of Launceston YFC travelled down to Truro school to take part in the sports day. The day started with girls netball and boys football, with mixed hockey and mixed frisbee in the afternoon. We achieved some great results, coming first in the hockey, second in the frisbee and netball, and third in the football, which meant we won overall! Good work by everyone that took part.

 

Royal Cornwall Show

It has been another brilliant show despite the weather. A massive thank you and congratulations to everyone who put a lot of time and energy into the cubical and individual entries all the hard work paid off and Launceston YFC were rewarded with second on overall points.

It has been a very busy few months for Launceston YFC from competing at the Nationals in Torquay in cheerleading and the entertainments competitions, to general meetings at Warrens Butchers, Flip Out and Teagle Machinery.

The past weekend was Cornwall YFC competitions day where Launceston entered into most activities including both the ladies and men's Tug of War competitions.
