The rubrics and resources for each of your levels in located on the website under:
Cadet Training>Master Training Plan (or click here )
1) Ensure that you are ready to instruct your lesson that you chose.
2) A copy of your Lesson Plan is required to be handed in or emailed to the Level Officer BEFORE your lesson.
3) If you need any resources (photocopying, instructional aids) or assistance - please email your Level Officer at 177air@cadets.gc.ca and be clear on what you require.
DRESS CODE:
We realize that many Cadets do not have a uniform yet or have parts that need to be replaced as they are too small.
Please be patient as Capt Ocran and Capt Dionne-St. Vincent is working hard to put these together.
If you do not have a uniform and need to wear civilian attire, it must uphold a positive and professional image of the Squadron and the entire Canadian Cadet Movement.
- Sleepwear (pyjama pants, slippers, etc.), joggers, leggings is discouraged
- Pants should not have rips, holes, or stained
- No graphics, imagery, or slogans on t-shirts or sweatshirts
- Female cadets must tie their hair back (ponytail, braids, etc.) or wear their hair up and must be neat and tidy
- Hairstyle and colour must not be bizarre, exaggerated, or unusual in appearance.
- A combination of issued uniform parts and civilian clothing is not permitted.
If you are wearing your uniform, it must be according to the required dress standard.
Cadet Dress Regulations can also be found here: Cadet Dress Regulations
SUPPLY:
Please ensure you bring your old uniform parts to exchange for new ones.
1. They must be washed and boots blacken
2. Old rank slips and sewn-ons to be brought back to be exchanged.
3. Please have them in a bag labeled with your name and ideally the sizes you are exchanging for faster processing.
Be prepared to be remeasured for a field uniform if your current uniform does not fit.
When stopping by to see if your uniform is ready please state your first and last name along with your level and sign off for uniform parts before you leave.
Request for Hangers for Supply
Spring Clean is in the air and with that, you may have come across hangers that you no longer need/want.
Please consider donating them to 177 Squadron's Supply.
We are accepting all types of hangers in good condition so please feel free to bring them down with you tonight and year-round.
Please bring your donations of unwanted hangers to the Supply Office.
Let us be eco-friendly and see what we can reuse before we buy new.
Any amount will help.
Thank you!!
CAF Famil "Tech Talks"
The objective is CAF Familiarization (CAF Famil), which is essentially an introduction to as many (Canadian Armed Forces) CAF members in as many occupations as possible. This is the team that ensures the CAF can maintain a strong, secure, engaged national defense policy.
Every “cool job” has many other unseen team members working together to ensure their operational effectiveness. Every team member is essential, there are no “spare people” in the CAF. As these episodes are for general familiarization, they are open to all elements.
The Next upcoming Tech Talks is Tuesday, 12 April 2022
Featuring a Search & Rescue Pilot. Due to the operational nature of this occupation, there is a possibility she will be called away. She has committed to this date/time to familiarize the cadets of the NW with many of the duties and responsibilities of a Search & Rescue Pilot. With some luck, the seas will be calm enough to permit her presentation. The contingency episode is Infantry.
