General Overview/Explanation

Summer Training is 100% optional we do recommend cadets attend because it is a wonderful free experience. HOWEVER – cadets are not required to attend. Cadets can still be 100% successful in the program however; please note by not attending any summer training they will not be eligible for things like staff, exchanges, senior expeditions. Cadets and parents must have an honest conversation , do you as the cadet want to go, if yes, why? What course? If not, why not? Officers are available to further explain.

On your application ensure you list the course AND the dates you are available. IF you are NOT available for specific dates do not apply for those – clearly state the dates you cannot attend camp

Summer Training Participation Application

On the application form you will see options for your top three choices, cadets are encouraged to apply to multiple courses HOWEVER if you write down you want to apply for a course be sure you want to go on that course. Please DO NOT apply for a course that you wouldn’t accept. Ex don’t apply for Music if you only want to go to Marksmanship or don’t apply for Drill and Ceremonial if you only want to go on Fitness and Sports.

Please fill out the Participation Application to the best of your ability – email with questions if you are unsure which courses you can apply for.

The goal of the summer training courses is that you follow the same program for all of your training. Ex – GT – Basic Expedition – Expedition Instructor – Expedition Staff or Exchange

A quick note on Remembrance Day

Look here to see where you wear your poppy on your uniform – https://www.3036rcacc.ca/uncategorized/wearing-of-the-poppy/

The Parade
945 am in Full uniform – Beaverbank-Kinsac Fire Department – turn right up the road just before it to the school at the top of the hill (on the left). That is where we will be meeting.

You will be wearing your full uniform with a poppy. Dress for the weather – you can wear your cadet toque (if you have it) or your beret with your uniform, your cadet winter jacket (if you have it) , and black mittens or gloves. If you do not have a cadet winter jacket you can wear your civilian winter jacket over your uniform.

If your uniform has not come in by then you will wear appropriate civilian clothes with a poppy – no bright colors.

Please keep in mind to dress for the weather. You can wear long johns under your uniform – do not constrict your blood flow by wearing tight constricting clothes under your uniform. Wool socks are a must in your parade boots to keep your feet warm – if you don’t have any go see supply.

The band will play. Make sure you bring your instrument and music.

Parents please stay at the ceremony until the cadets are done. Usually the ceremony ends around 11:20.

The parade goes on rain, snow or shine.

sell sheet

Quickie Dough Info Sheet

We are excited to announce our new year fundraiser – Cookie Dough!

We are asking cadets and families to help sell Cookie Dough to raise funds for activities such as rock climbing, band, orienteering, marksmanship and biathlon.

Follow this link to find the sell sheet, you can download and print. There will also be sheets printed at cadets next Wednesday for pick up.

To bring some friendly rivalry and friendly competition we are splitting the unit into two teams:
Team Leaders:
Team 1 – WO Allen – Green and Red Stars
Team 2 – MWO Beck – Silvers Stars and above
The winning team will get a pizza party and of course major bragging rights!
PS. Rumor has it some of the adult staff will be selling and willing to give their sales to cadets, so start practicing your sales winning pitches to see if you can get some bonus sales! Tip – don’t bombard the staff, carefully plan the best time to talk. There could be a skill testing question, a feat of fitness, or your creativity may just win it! May the odds be ever in your favor 🙂

Please note there is an info sheet also found at this link : https://www.3036rcacc.ca/uncategorized/cookie-dough-fundraiser/

It is important to note that while the Darn Near Gluten Free are made with Gluten Free Flour the facility cannot guarantee no cross contamination and therefore cannot guarantee Gluten Free.
No Peanut products are prepared in the facility however some ingredients may contain trace amounts, there is not mention of other nuts such as tree nuts, we cannot guarantee they are safe for those with nut allergies.

Cadets must bring their sell sheet completed with their money (in a zip lock bag clearly labeled with their name) by October 17th. All money and sales must be in on October 17th at the latest. If anyone pays by cheque please make it payable to: Sackville Army Cadet Corps.

It will take approximately 14 days after the full order is submitted for the cookie dough to be ready. We estimate it will take approximately one week for the adult staff to organize the orders to submit one large order. Therefore we estimate however; cannot guarantee the cookie dough should be ready for pick up on November 7th.
