In this time of uncertainty, it is important for everyone to stay connected. Not only to keep up to date with Cadet activities and events, but also to keep ourselves engaged and connected to one another.
Any messages related to the activities of the Cadet programs will be communicated by our chain of command (COC) and then onto you as soon as new information is available. At this time, COC is planning on re-assessing the Cadet Program by next Friday.
We will inform you of any changes as they happen. Keep an eye on your email, Facebook and Instagram.

THIS WEEK'S LESSON: EMAIL ETIQUETTE (How to send a proper email).
Below is a link to a guide on how to send a proper email to the Squadron. We have been receiving many emails, and often they are not addressed properly or we don't know who they are from, or sent like a text message. Proper communication is important in the Cadet program. This ensures the email is concise, factual and is responded to by the correct person.
