Cadets are to tag in uniform – plain black gloves are allowed if needed. If you do not have a cadet jacket you may wear a civilian jacket. It is okay to add layers under your tunic if needed. For those new cadets that do not have uniforms, please wear appropriate civilian attire, you will be paired up with a cadet in uniform.

Cadets are expected to do three tagging shifts unless alternate arrangements have been discussed with Capt Norio.

This is our major squadron fundraiser, let’s all contribute to make this a successful tag days!
