If you are looking for a challenge, adventure or fun, this could be for you.
Tonight, it’s Air Cadets recruiting night for youth and teens ages 12 to 18.
The 547 Canuck Royal Canadian Air Cadets are gearing up for a new year. Come out and see what it’s all about from 6:00pm-8:00pm at the Fort Chippewa Barracks.
The aim of the cadet organization is to develop in youth the attributes of good citizenship and leadership, promote physical fitness and stimulate an interest in the activities of the Canadian Forces.
Our local unit is sponsored by the Air Cadet League of Canada in partnership with the Canadian Forces and our sponsor 406 Squadron.
The Air Cadet Training Program provides a wide range of activities and courses to meet the interests of cadets. New recruits begin their training with Drill and General Cadet Knowledge, giving them a knowledge of the origin of the cadet movement and its development, an understanding of the rank structure and an appreciation for the care of uniform.
Cadets then move on to subjects such as Citizenship, Physical Fitness, Leadership, Aircraft Identification, Aeronautical Facilities, Airframes, Aircrew Survival, and Range/Shooting.
