Welcome

To view ALL Cadet Activities please visit the Squadron Calendar

Committee Meetings

Time and Place: Room 208, AY Jackson High School starting at 6:45pm, lasting about 1 hour.

Purpose: To elect the 2012-13 Squadron Sponsoring Committee members and to confirm new and returning volunteers.  All parents are invited to participate in the election, to observe and to step forward as a new volunteer on the commitee.

Please note that some executive members and directors will be moving on after this year. Therefore, cadets need parents of all cadets but particularly junior cadets to come out and join the fun and dedicated group that will partner with Major Dixon and her staff to make 2012-13 another excellent training year.

No experience necessary – you may start out as a helper/volunteer and take on whatever level of effort and responsibility matches your interest and ability. If you cannot attend the election night, you are always  welcome to join as a volunteer at any time during the training year, or to help out at events.

Thank you for your consideration.  Hope to see you there,

Dave Mowat
