Announcements

Currently the waitlist for new cadets is closed.

If you filled out our waitlist and are waiting on further information, thank you for your patience.
We are starting to move through our list and processing new enrollments.

If your cadet is not selected to enroll with us this September, we will provide options for other units in the area.
Thank you for your patience and understanding as we navigate this phase of the training year. This year we have seen the highest number of cadets interested in joining our unit, and the most restrictions on how many cadets we are allowed to enroll/transfer to our unit.

If you have been selected to be enrolled, please note there will be a parents meeting Tuesday Sept. 16th. Details will be emailed.
We are excited to offer many teams for cadets to participate in this year! Please ensure that when signing up for any activity to use your Cadet365 account. More information on each team can be found in the General Teams channel.
