Cadet Volunteers Needed

Each year the congregation of Grace United Church lends us the use of their church hall for our Mess Dinner. It is our turn to help them!  The Grace United Church Sidewalk Sale is on Fri 29 Aug & Sat 30 Aug (Labour Day Wknd).

WE NEED VOLUNTEER CADETS FOR THE FOLLOWING:

4 Cadets for the Friday morning at 10am-noon for set-up.

2 for Saturday morning 8:00 till 11:00 to help serve breakfast;

4 Cadets on Saturday afternoon from Noon till 3:00 for tear down.

SO, especially for those who were not able to help out at the Airport Fest, I am asking that you make yourselves available to help those who help others.

This is open to all current Air Cadets at 809 Sqn. These hours would count directly toward your high school volunteer hour requirements.
In addition to the above, we will have a recruiting table at the Airport Fest for the day. We will need 2 cadets to hand out material and speak with the general public about what makes Air Cadets such a fantastic opportunity. This is the perfect chance for those returning from summer training to meet up with their friends and exchange stories!

**Please note for ramp security, and anyone involved on ramp side, there is a briefing Thursday, August 16th at 1800 hours, at the terminal.   – if your cadet is away at summer trg, let Capt Palumbo know so she can arrange for another time for this important briefing. This is critical as the airport and taxiways will remain active while the public visit the static displays.
