The Welland Air Cadets are running this fundraiser with ALL proceeds going to Jumpstart. It is important that we equally show support in times of need, and Jumpstart needs us. Covid restricts creating events that cause crowds limiting fundraising, and this is a fundraiser 87 is good at.

Your much needed support is greatly appreciated.

Please see Rob Foster at Canadian Tire in Service with your order and full payment. Cheques can be made payable to Robert Foster who is administrating this fundraiser.

Post dated cheques will be refused.

Little Caesars Pickup Info

Message from the parent-run Squadron Sponsoring Committee:

Anyone that has Little Caesars orders for pickup:

We have been working through how to get your orders to you while keeping with current stand down orders and considering social distancing.

Unfortunately Little Caesars will not allow us to defer pickup of the orders or distribute the orders themselves. We also do not have the room to store all the orders in our freezers, so therefore we have come up with the following solution:

  1. First off, anyone that is unable due to quarantining or uncomfortable with picking up their order, we will hold them in the freezer. Please reach out to vkalenuik@gmail.com to let me know you cannot pickup your order.
  2. However, as we have limited space in the freezer, and recognizing the needs of families, pickup will take place Friday at 5:00PM sharp at the airport.
  3. When you arrive, do not get out of your vehicle. Please back in along the building and open your trunk/unlock your tailgate; an SSC member will place the order in your trunk and allow you to drive off.
  4. Cadets are not permitted to be on the premises, and cannot be in the vehicle.
  5. SSC members will be practicing hand washing, and wearing gloves while handling your orders. We suggest your wipe down your orders with government approved cleaners and wash your hands upon return to your homes; following Health Canada guidelines.

We thank everyone for their cooperation.

SSC Chair

Please note: Fundraisers are run solely by the parent-run Squadron Sponsoring Committee, and are not the National Cadet program or the Canadian Forces. The SSC is a not-for-profit independent organization that fundraises for our local cadets for training above and beyond that funded and run by the National Cadet program. Cadets and Canadian Forces members are not permitted to be on the premises due to the stand down orders currently in affect.
