In-person training will take place each Monday night 413 Wing, Royal Canadian Air Force Association located at 230 North Murray St, Trenton. Dress will be C3E, tunic with dark blue t-shirt (unless you are directed wear something else). If you are unable to wear your uniform or have not yet been issued with a uniform, we ask that you wear a plain white shirt with dark pants. Returning cadets who are unable to be in uniform are asked to wear the blue "Together Strong" t-shirt you were given over the summer. All cadets and staff must wear a cloth face covering during in-person training, there will be no exceptions. Each cadet and staff will be screened prior to entering 413 Wiing and parents are asked not to leave before your cadet has passed the screening. All cadets must bring with them a water bottle and note pad and pen. All cadets are asked to review the COVID-19 Aide Memoirie, click here. If any cadet is not comfortable with in-person training, a virtual opition will be made availble. Please send an email to training@704aircadets.ca and a member of the training section will be in contact with you.
At this time we can not offer uniform exchages/returns or initial issue due to soical distancing guidelines. Please be patient while we work on a solution.
