Tagging Weekend 15, 16, 17 April 2016

It’s that time of year again!

Almost all our shifts have been filled – but we still need a few good cadets for Sunday afternoon. Do you want to add another shift? It will count toward our Fundraising Award in June.

The following 3 cadets have been signed up for 1 of their 2 mandatory shifts on Sunday, but need to add an additional shift on Sat (either morning or afternoon):   (you must be logged in to view). See Capt Lemoine on Wednesday night to make sure you get your name in a second time.

REMEMBER: do not make your parents pay the $100. SIGN-UP for two shifts, and SHOW up, do NOT arrive late or leave early. If you do not complete the two mandatory shifts, your attendance cheque will be cashed.

SCHEDULE will be finalized on Wednesday night and sent out asap.
