About the event
As part of the Air Cadet mandatory program, all cadets have to participate to an aircrew bush survival exercise. The objective is to familiarize our cadets with the different techniques to survive in an outdoor environment. Cadets will learn how to build a shelter, make a fire, cook their meals and sleep in a military tent or an improvised shelter. They will have to apply a wide range of skills and to work as a team within their respective instructional levels under the leadership of their senior cadets and officers. Cadets will need to report to Marie Victorin Community Center at 18:00 on Friday May 5, 2023 with their personal equipment listed in the kit list. The dress for this activity is the cadet Field Training Uniform (Green) with FTU tall boots. Cadets will be transported by bus to the training site and will be brought back at Marie Victorin Community Center at 15:00 on Sunday May 7, 2023. Plenty of fun in perspective with many great things to learn in an outdoor environment.
