Good day,

Friday will be regular training this week, and dress will be FTU.  I will be away starting Saturday, 14 Nov 26 until the following Saturday, 21 Nov 26.  Please direct any questions or communication to Capt. Brunelle during this time.

Band practice on Sunday has been extended by 1 hour to prepare for the upcoming parade.  Any parents who have not signed the waiver for the Santa Claus parade are asked to come in either Friday or Sunday and see OCdt Hutton.

This weekend we will be continuing usual activities open to all cadets interested.  See the list below for those activities and times.

Here is what we have planned for this weekend:

Effective speaking      Saturday               1100-1200hrs

Marksmanship             Saturday               1200-1400hrs

Flight sim                         Saturday               1200-1400hrs

Drill team                         Saturday               1400-1600hrs

Guard                                 Saturday                1600-1700hrs

Band                                   Sunday                   1300 – 1600hrs

Ground School            Monday                  1830-2100hrs

Capt. Diotte has asked that cadets return the Annual cadet information update (Annual Validation).  This is only for those returning cadets and not for those who joined us this training year. Please note that failure to return these will result in cadets not being permitted to attend any activities until it is returned. The deadline to return is 13 Nov.

Reminder to parents/guardians to please arrive on time to pick up your cadet after training and weekend activities.  Staff cannot leave until all cadets have been picked up and have been waiting, in some cases, in excess of 30 minutes after the activity has ended.

As our squadron is at or near capacity, with others waiting to join at various times throughout the year, we have decided to implement an attendance policy with a goal that the cadets who wish to be active with the squadron will be able to do so. With that said, any cadet missing 4 consecutive mandatory training nights WITHOUT prior written notification to squadron staff will be removed to make room for cadets waiting to join. To avoid this from happening to your Cadet, you must email staff in advance if your cadet will be absent from training.

For the safety of the cadets, please do not drop them off and drive away. Please ensure that they can actually get inside the building first. That way, we do not have cadets standing outside, in the weather, unsupervised. With regard to safety, I ask that NO vehicle drop-off or pick-up happen in the armoury parking lot. Please use Carleton St, in front of the library, for all drop off/pick up. Cadets will enter & exit the building via the side door on Carleton St.
