Our first night back was filled with excitement, a paper airplane contest, LAC promotions, a new SWO, and our DCO got promoted as well. Welcome back 809!

Good evening!
We’re back! This week’s training will be at 809 HQ for the first time in far too long!
For those of you who don’t remember the procedures, they are outlined in the Registration section of the WROs below. They’re similar to what we’ve been doing for virtual training, but also include the Ontario COVID-19 School Screening procedures. Remember to check in using this form as this is how we’ll be measuring attendance.
Optimistically expecting that we’ll be back for good, we need to get our uniforms in order. Try on your dress blues and your FTUs and make sure everything fits. If anything doesn’t, bring it with you on Wednesday and we’ll see what can be done to get you properly outfitted. Remember that partial uniform wear isn’t permitted, so if you have an FTU item that doesn’t fit, wear civilian clothing until you have everything you need for a full uniform.
Really looking forward to seeing everyone in-person on Wednesday!

Good evening!
We’ve just received word that in-person activities can once again begin, but there’s still a few procedures to complete before we can return to regular training at the HQ. All of these have been completed and we’re just waiting on final approval. This leaves us one more night of virtual training on Wednesday with a planned return to in-person the following week!
Senior cadets, if you haven’t done so, please make sure you have your fitness test results in to 2Lt Couroux as soon as you have completed your testing.
Remember to read the WROs in their entirety.
See you on Wednesday!

Good evening!
We’ve just received word that we should start preparing facilities for a return to in-person training! We don’t have a firm timeframe yet, but we should expect more clarification soon.
In the meantime, we’re suspending regular training this week to have fun with another escape room session. Make sure you’re signed in to the regular Google Meet room and we’ll break out to the escape room session when they’re ready for us.
Senior cadets, please make sure you have your fitness test results in to 2Lt Couroux as soon as you have your results.

Cadet Activity Programs for Summer 2022
It looks like the previous link only has options for cadets of age 14 and above. For cadets who are 12 and 13 years old, we have the Cadet Activity Programs which will be run at more local locations.
Cadet Activity Programs for Summer 2022
There aren’t a lot of specifics on these ones yet because they’re being organized on a wider scale, but we’ll post more detail as we have it.

Summer Training 2022
We’re doing in-person summer training for 2022! There’s going to be some mixture of virtual training and in-person training, but it’s certainly more exciting than what we’ve had these last few years.
Full details on what’s available can be found here: Summer Training Courses 2022
Cadets will need to have a Cadets365 account to participate in much of this, but we’ll be transitioning our 809cadets.ca email addresses to Cadets365 over the next few months. We’ll definitely get you access long before training commences.
In the meantime, have a look at what’s available, decide what you’d like to participate in and let us know next week what you’d like to do.
Don’t pass up this opportunity. This is the best part of being a cadet!

Good evening!
We’ve got some indirect good news in that the province is slowly lifting restrictions, so we’ve got our fingers crossed that we’re coming to the end of virtual-only training. We’ll pass on the information as soon as we have it.
I apologize for the delay in getting the summer training material together, but that will be coming by Wednesday at the latest. It looks like they’ve got some good options on the table, so I hope everyone is ready to put their names when we have all of the details.
Remember that Padre Fowler is running a couple of worthwhile workshops (details below) and if you have the availability, you should be checking them out.
Remember to read the WROs in their entirety.

Good evening!
We’re still in a holding pattern with respect to a return to in-person training, but will let you know what we know as soon as we know it.
Last week’s split between regular training and fun activities to bring the squadron together was a success, so we’re going to continue. There’s also been talk about cadets organizing their own activities outside of our training environment, and that’s 100% encouraged. Remember that part of being a cadet is the friends that you make. That should definitely extend beyond the training that we’re conducting.
In addition to the activities that we’re offering, Padre (Capt) Fowler, the RCSU(C) Chaplain, is organizing some sessions on self leadership and time management, and on creating and maintaining safe and positive spaces. These sessions are outlined in the upcoming activities section and are open to both cadets and staff.
Remember to read the WROs in their entirety.

Good afternoon!
Congratulations to the FSgts who sat the WO2 MRB this last Saturday. We’ve received the results and the staff will be going over them this week.
We’re still waiting on updates with respect to a return to in-person training, but things are beginning to open up, so we remain optimistic about the near future. In the meantime, we’re still running virtual training and will keep you in the loop as we get more information.
The senior cadets are also working on some fun activities to augment our regular training schedule, so we hope to have something to tell you there really soon.
Remember to read the WROs in their entirety.
