Marksmanship Session – Sunday, January 6, 2019

Posted on by

My regrets for the late announcement, at the last marksmanship training group session I mentioned a session for today from 630 to 830PM but it did not make it into the January calendar.

If Cadets or parents of cadets in the training group could email me to let me know if they can make it, please let me know at your earliest convenience. My phone cannot currently receive text messages.

Regards,

Change to the schedule

Good Evening Everyone,

Due to the school being unavailable on Monday, December 10th we have an unavoidable change in our schedule.

Cadets will now participate in a night at the Admiralty  House Museum locates at 365 Old Placentia Rd in Mount Pearl.  They will be taking part in semaphore and Morse code activities, as well as a tour.

Cadets are to meet at the Museum for 6:20pm and to be picked up at 8:30pm.  The dress for the activity is still work dress and the entry cost will be covered for all cadets.

If there are any questions please let us know.
