One last summer post! Cpl Ebel travelled to Saskadet this summer to attend the 8 day Cadet Activity Program (CAP). What an amazing experience! We are so proud of all our cadets who successfully completed summer training. Officers and seniors are meeting this evening to finalize plans for our open house. We are excited to see all our returning and new cadets at the Open House next week!

A HUGE Congratulations to FSgt Ahmed, who graduated from the Glider Pilot Training Course and earned his wings this summer! Cadets who wish to become glider pilots study ground school for 3 months before writing a competitive entrance exam. A select few cadets who pass this exam are chosen to then go through an interview process. Only 3 cadets from Saskatchewan were chosen to attend this course, which consists of 6 weeks of intensive theory and flight training. We are so very proud of FSgt Ahmed and wish him well on his future flying endeavors!

Here's some more pictures from our FTX! Before it got too hot, cadets worked on different types of shelters and fires, went canoeing, tied some knots, worked with GPS's, and our level 4s learned how to safely transport a casualty. In the evening, we had rain. Cadets were tasked with transporting some kit while keeping it dry. We also celebrated everyone's birthday and ate some cake!

Some Saturday pictures from FTX. Canoeing by syndicates, too hot mid afternoon so a movie indoors was in order. Rain hit at supper, so an evening of indoor activities in the rec center after supper.

Yesterday we jumped right into training! We had cadets working on building different types of shelters, starting a fire, using a compass, and one group went canoeing! The cadets ended the night with a movie before bed. We had some rain this morning but the sun came out and cadets have been very busy today. Photos will follow tomorrow 😊
