The Squadron Sponsoring Committee is to pay administrative costs such as facility rent, telephone, contents insurance, trophies and awards, additional costs to fund a band, drill team and other activities that are not covered by DND.Throughout the year, parents are requested to help in fund-raising events (tag days, meat orders, etc.) to help maintain the high level of activities planned for the training year. In addition, each year parents are requested to pay a $220 Assessment Fee. A $60 discount is applied for a 2nd child from the same family. From the Assessment Fee, $100 is paid directly to the British Columbia Provincial Committee, and the balance of the Fee is used to help offset the many operating costs (as identified above).We offer a payment plan of $66.67 over September, October and November.The Squadron Sponsoring Committee is completely operated by screened volunteers – from the Chairperson to each parent driver. There are many opportunities to help. Every family is expected to find a task where they can assist. It is a great way to meet other parents and to learn more about the Cadet Movement.

Your son/daughter receives many advantages as a member of the Cadet program. All uniforms are supplied by the Department of National Defence. Cadets have the opportunity to participate in the band, drill team, effective speaking (sponsored by the British Columbia Air Cadet League), range, biathlon, first aid, gliding, familiarization flying and weekend exercises. In addition, Cadets may attend various summer camps and scholarship camps at no or minimal cost to the parents. Cadets who are selected for a summer camp receive a “Training Bonus” of $60.00 per week while at camp!
