CO’s Message

Good afternoon!

We had a really good time last week between bowling and a last-minute rework of our training night. I’m particularly glad to see our attendance picking up again.

With the exception of one end-of-year activity that’s still in the planning stages, I’ve populated all of the squadron activities for the rest of the training year in the “Upcoming Activities” section of the WROs. Take a close look. As of next week, we’re back in our blue uniforms and slowly moving up to proper dress for our Annual Ceremonial Review (ACR), Awards Night, and Change of Command on the 25th of May. If you haven’t taken the opportunity to find out what fits and what doesn’t, do it this week so that you can see CI Dau about getting replacements for the things that don’t.

This Wednesday, we have a special activity night planned. They have some aviation and aerospace ideas revolving around the significance of May 4th. (I’m thinking that Lt Couroux might have some understanding of such things.) Make sure you come out and see what they have planned.

Last week, the pictures below were posted to get everyone excited about the RCAF familiarization flights this Saturday! We’ve got a bus picking us up at 0715 that Saturday morning and we’re heading down to London International Airport to catch a ride. Cadets attending should be wearing C5 uniform, C3B if they don’t have a complete C5 uniform, and (as a last resort) black pants and a white shirt if they have neither. Cadets who find themselves in that last category need to see both CI Dau and myself this Wednesday.

Participating cadets need to be at 809 HQ at 0700 on Saturday morning at the latest in proper attire, with a snack bag for the trip, a refillable water bottle, and their Ontario health cards. If any of these are missing, the cadet will not board the bus. Don’t leave things at home.

See everyone on Wednesday!
