CO's Parade - Tuesday 03 October 2023
This upcoming Tuesday, 364 will be having its first of many CO's parades. During this parade, we will be giving out promotions that have come through throughout the summer and during September, and some summer qualification badges. Parents are encouraged to come and watch. It will start approximately 2015 and end at the normal dismal time.
Food Drive - Sunday 08 October 2023
To support our community, 364 will be hosting a food drive. This will help families on the Thanksgiving holiday have meals. We ask that cadets and their families donate non-perishable foodstuffs.
To encourage donations, each flight will be competing to see who can bring in the most non-perishable foodstuffs. Collections will be tallied and divided by the number of cadets in each flight. The flight that has the most donations will get to skip a rotation of duty (nightly cleaning duties). As well, cadets who are in need of community service hours can be rewarded with an hour per foodstuffs donated.
Cadets can start bringing in their non-perishable foodstuffs starting on Tuesday. Sunday 08 October will be the last day to bring them in, staff will be at the unit from 1000-1400 to accept donations during the day. Any cadets wanting to come and help out on this day, please contact Captain Hadwen on MS Teams.
