October 8, 2019 Newsletter Welcome to 704 Air Force City Cadet Squadron! Congratulations to the orienteering team on another VERY successful competition. Way to Go!!! It looked like everyone who attending FTX has fun. For those that were unable to attend we do have another FTX scheduled for the spring. If you know of anyone between the ages of 12-18 and who are interested in Cadets please feel free to invite them to visit the Squadron on a Monday night. If they already know they are interested in joining, then information on registration can be found under Registration / Required Documents on our webpage. Please pay special attention to the requirement to print on legal size paper. Important Reminders OPC Lottery Tickets: The sale of these tickets benefit our Squadron so we are able to attend trips and optional activities. Each Cadet is expected to sell one book. As we did last year, our Sponsoring Committee would like $60.00 up front for the book of tickets. When the tickets are sold, return only the stubs and keep the money. New recruits and Cadets requiring uniform exchanges are to wear black pants and a white shirt until sized and uniform parts are in stock. If you are unable to attend training on a Monday night or an event that you have signed up for, you need to call the squadron at 613-921-7047 or report your absence on the squadron website. Commenting on Facebook or telling a friend are NOT acceptable means of reporting your absence. This is the Cadets responsibility not their parents. Please add the following events to your calendar for the 2019-2020 Training Year: Standard Monday night training will not be posted here unless there is something special happening such as Sports night that may occur at a different location. Team practices will be posted here a few weeks in advance. 2019 * Sunday October 13th - Gliding Day at Mountain View airport (located just off Hwy 62 South near Ameliasburg) - when attending Gliding cadets MUST have their Health Cards, should bring clothing appropriate for the weather (remembering that it is substantially cooler in the air than on the ground), sunscreen, hat, jacket, and water bottle. Sunglasses are optional but good to have. Shifts are 8:30 am to 12 noon and then 12 noon to 4pm. - This is the ONLY gliding day scheduled for the training year and is mandatory for all Level 1 Cadets. If you are unable to find a ride out to Mountain View that day, please speak to one of the officers and we will look into what we can arrange to assist. We are thrilled that one of our own Cadets (WO2 Paul) who earned his Private Pilot License this summer has completed all the required training/flight time and has been approved by the Mountain View Flying Site Commander to be one of the pilots taking our Cadets up that day. This is a perfect example of what hard work and dedication can accomplish through the program. * Monday October 14th - No Cadets - Enjoy Thanksgiving with your family and friends. * Friday October 18th - "Cadet Night" at Belleville Senators hockey game - Tickets to the game are $10.00 each and MUST be purchased in advance.
