The Cadet Program is one of the largest federally sponsored youth programs in Canada. It is a national program for young Canadians aged 12 to 18 who are interested in participating in a variety of fun, challenging and rewarding activities.
A special THANK YOU to all those parents who assisted us in ensuring our Tag Day was a success by driving cadets to and from the various tagging locations. Parent volunteers are part of the key to our success.
Thanks again,
Parents Sponsoring Committee and 87 Eagle Squadron Staff
