Hi everyone,

Camp’s all packed up and we’re ready to head out.  You’re tired cadets will be ready for pick up at the Squadron Headquarters at 2pm.  See you there.

OCdt Couroux

1. Tonight: Presuming that you’ll have your uniform already packed, dress for cadets on the Vimy Trip will be black pants, white shirt, and black tie. Remember those first few weeks when you joined and you’ll do just fine.
2. Passports: Just to make sure that I have the final list for check-in, bring your passports with you either on Monday or Wednesday so that I can verify them against the information I have.

Capt Lemoine

DCO 809 Newark Squadron

Duty Officer: Capt Palumbo. NO DUTY NCM for our first night – new policy to come into effect next week.

Looking forward to seeing everyone out tomorrow night for our Welcome Back BBQ & Training Night.

Bring a friend! Dinner is covered.

Dress: C2B for Sgts, FSgts, WOII; C4A for Cpl & FCpls

New Recruits: come as you are – dress instructions for interim will be discussed when you arrive.

Don’t Forget: we’re at our NEW LOCATION: 1875 Niagara Stone Rd  Niagara-on-the-lake, ON (Front doors of the Royal Elite International Academy)

ALL documents pertaining to registration will be available upon arrival. For returning cadets, look online under cadet resources to find the most up to date CADET PLANNER and ANNEXES.

The squadron set-up originally scheduled for today is cancelled. Capt Palumbo will be on site tomorrow during the school day (930-230) if you are available to help.

Not much remains thanks to the stellar help provided by the staff and Cdts Abt & Bell. BZ!

Best of luck to all our summer training cadets – we know you’ll do 809 proud!

join us as we bid farewell to our old headquarters (LHQ) on Wednesday evening. We still have a few sports and FTX items that need to be moved as well as some cleaning to do before we hand over the keys on Thurs.

If you can help: meet at our old LHQ (the old virgil public school) at 630pm Wed 28 Jun 17. At least two staff members are bringing trucks/trailers – if you have one to lend a hand, please bring it.

We anticipate it’ll take an hour or two to get everything loaded and moved to our new location. Many hands makes light work: come on out if you can!

We also need some cleaners to help us get rid of all our old garbage/recycling and load it into a trailer for the dump. If you can help with that, or cleaning the counters/floors of the old LHQ, come on out!

Congratulations to Officer Cadet Lavoie, Canadian Army on his Attestation Ceremony today in Hamilton. We are proud of all that you have accomplished, and excited about what is to come. Vigilamus pro te – We stand on guard for thee.

Air Cadets who are interested in pursuing a career as a commercial pilot can now apply for one of these two new education scholarships.

Awarded to a full-time student accepted and enrolled in a Jazz APP-affiliated aviation program for outstanding contributions to safety, leadership and professionalism. The Award consists of a $3000 scholarship to one of the Jazz App programs.

2.       The Jazz Aviation Pathway Award for Professionalism and Diversity. Awarded to a full-time student accepted and enrolled in a Jazz APP-affiliated aviation program who has self-identified as Aboriginal, a person with a disability, a visible minority, or female; for outstanding contributions to safety, leadership and professionalism.

Air Cadets have until June 30, 2017 to send their application. Needless to say, these scholarships could greatly help the academic development of a Cadet. It is therefore important for them to be aware of this wonderful opportunity and its upcoming deadline.
