IOBA – Merchendise 2025 ver 1.0

During the Saturday visit to the school there is now a no alcohol rule.

The bar at JSMTC is no longer available on Base and therefore the Commanding Officer has asked that no alcohol is bought onto the site or sold. This is due to families and students being on site over the weekend.

Although this will be disappointing for some, we need to honour and respect this request as their guests.

Saturday NIGHT 6th June: Meet for drinks from 17:00 in the ‘1884 Bar‘, Dinner for 19:00. Bangor University.
