What: NAG Drill Competition 2018
When: This Saturday, 14 Apr 2018. Be there no later than 0815h (8:15am) and be prepared to stay until about 1600h (4:00pm).
Where: 809 Newark HQ, Royal Elite International Academy, 1975 Niagara Stone Road, Niagara-on-the-Lake, ON L0S 1J0. Cadets may enter via the front doors or the south parking lot entrance. Spectators are asked to park in the south parking lot and come in the south parking lot entrance. A rough map of the event can be found at the following link.
Dress: C2. Do not wear medals as these are C1 items and will count against you at uniform inspection. Come in your civilian clothes, 809 spirit wear if you have it and bring your uniform on a hanger with your boots and wedge.
When: Plan to arrive at 0815h (8:15am) for opening parade at 0830h (8:30am). Uniform inspections begin at 0845h (8:45am) and the first team will be on the parade square at 0900h (9:00am). For parents who wish to come in and see our team shine, we are team four (4), will be doing uniform inspection at 1015h (10:15am) and will hit the parade square at 1000h (10:00am).
Notes:
Bring in your shoe shining kit and a lint brush if you have one. A bit of final polishing and preparation can make all the difference when it comes to uniform inspection.
Bring a packed lunch and a water bottle. We have water on site, but will not be providing disposable bottles.
There will also be a canteen and 809’s SSC will be selling pizza for lunch as well.
Bring in something to do as there will be free time.
During free time, take the opportunity to watch the other teams during their routines. There’s a lot to be learned by observing how others do things.
Good luck!
