Correction: Ground school date for next week

Ground school cadets;

There was a mistake on next weeks Weekly Routine Orders: it was originally listed that Ground School will be on Thursday next week. Class will in fact be on Monday and Tuesday night, and NOT Thursday next week.

The WRO has been updated accordingly to reflect the correct dates. It is available on 87eagle.ca

I apologize for any confusion this may have caused.

Enjoy your evening,

Capt C. Bowman
Commanding Officer
