See the right side of the website: “Subscribe to Updates”. All cadets are required to sign up for updates on the website.

3. Drill Team Practice – Tuesday 1900hrs to 2030hrs

Bring boot and wedge, dress for the weather, be prepared to go outside.

4. Parade Night – Wednesday

We are planning to parade outside all night starting Annual Ceremonial Review practice: Make sure to bring coats and gloves, and base your decision for layers based on the forecasted weather that evening, and understanding that the weather is always colder and windier at the airport than in the city.

5. Gliding – Saturday 1300hrs to 1700hrs

All cadets that have signed up for gliding (sign up sheets will be up on Wednesday until the list fills up) please note the following information:

Location: 87 LHQ
Timing: 1300hrs
Bring: Health Card, water bottle, snacks, sunscreen, hat, and dress for the weather (see note below).
Parents: May come and request to take photos, please see flight staff on arrival.

Weather:
As a reminder, please ensure you are dressed for the weather.  The grass is typically wet and soggy in the mornings, so proper footwear needs to be worn.  The air temperature and wind are also typically not the same as in the city, so again, please ensure appropriate outer wear is present.  Cadets not dressed appropriately for the weather conditions may be required to stay off of the airfield.

Quick Reminder: No Cadets This Week

Since it is March Break, there will be no Drill Team practice tonight, or parade night tomorrow night.

Enjoy the break, take time to work on your uniforms, and see everyone next week.
