Annual Ceremonial Review

Saturday, June 3 – 1100hrs – 1200hrs

RSVP Link: Daniel.couroux@cadets.gc.ca

Cadets are to arrive at the squadron headquarters for 0800hrs on Saturday, June 3rd for practices and setup. Wear civies but bring your uniform (C1A) on a hanger. They are to report to Capt Emptage for attendance. Parents and guests are asked to be seated 1045hrs for a 1100hrs start. As this is a mandatory parade, we require a note from all cadets who are unable to participate.

All parents and cadets are invited to join us following the parade for a small reception to commemorate our success this year – we have lots to celebrate! Please invite your entire family to come to the parade as it truly shows the result of the hard work the Cadets of 809 Squadron have put forward this past training year.

In order to estimate numbers for the SSC BBQ that traditionally follows the ACR, please RSVP using the link above and include your cadet in your response.

Guests should dress in business casual attire. (No jeans.)

See you there!
