1 of our First Aid Teams qualified at the Zone Competition in March to attend the Provincial First Aid Competition.  This is an exciting opportunity for our FA Team to showcase their skills, and two other cadets will be attending to be casualties for this province wide competition.

You can read more about this 100+ year old Provincial First Aid Competition at OMFRC.

Congratulation and Good Luck to our FA Team this coming weekend!

All Cadets;

This Wednesday will be civilian dress. Cadets will be working on their static displays (see below), and watching a movie.

Static Displays

From FSgt Filion:

Reminder by this Wednesday all static display plans have to be complete and handed in to FSgt Filion. 

We will have dedicated time for you to work on your static displays physical board. We ask that you bring any materials you may need to be able to work on your project : paint, markers, glue, tape, scissors, materials to build any models and anything else that sparks your creativity. Please talk within your group to properly determine which cadets are responsible to bring what.

If you’re not sure who is in your group, please contact FSgt Filion via Teams or email: sfilion1904007@cdt.cadets.gc.ca.

Here is the guide to help you complete your static display : 

1. Plan – Create a document that holds : 
   1- Your topic and chosen title
   2- Your main points. (What will your static display consist of? What are you talking about?)       
   3- Text for each point (Senior Cadets will be checking for Grammar, authenticity, and factual information.)
   4- Pictures and any models or props you might need to create or bring (Are you going to have pictures? What pictures? Are you going to make a model? Out of what? What materials do you need?)
2. Preparation – You should have your titles, text, and pictures printed out, ready to start gluing it to your board. You should have your models and/or props ready to create, build if needed.
3. Then this Wednesday: You will assemble it – Put together all your pictures, writing, etc. on the board. Create your models or other creations, add colour, and whatever else sparks your creativity. Finish creating your static display to have a final product to hand in on the 22 of May.

Good luck, and I look forward to seeing what you come up with!

Baked goods are still needed for our Purse Bingo fundraiser. Baked goods can be dropped off on Wednesday night. Volunteers will be ready to accept baked good donations at the beginning of cadets.

Baked goods can also be dropped off at the Legion on Friday between 2-5 p.m.

Please see Natalie if you have any questions. Natalie can also be reached at nfoster498@gmail.com.

All cadets;

Attached is the permission form for gliding tomorrow. Please see the following:

1. PRINT and SIGN the Permission Form: https://87eagle.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Parental-Consent-Activities-by-registration-1.pdf
2. Cadets that do not have a signed permission form and their physical HEALTH CARD will not be flying.
3. Only the cadets on the list posted here can attend: https://87eagle.ca/2024/gliding-april-20/

Make sure you dress for the weather. It is always considerably more cold on the flight line. This includes wearing boots as the airfield (which we will be spending most of our time on) is currently very wet.

Cadets not dressed for the weather and that do not have proper foot wear will not be flying and will be sent home.

Make sure to bring:

• Health Card
• Signed permission form
• Water bottle
• Snacks
• Toque, gloves/mitts if needed
• Jacket
• Boots
