Lt(N) White Departure

Cadets and Parents,

I am writing this post with a with a heavy heart; I have decided to take a step back from Marconi at the end of the month. I have decided that I need to make some time for my family and my other work commitments and therefore I will not be able to continue the training year as the Administration Officer.

I will be staying an active member of the cadet program however I will not be parading with Marconi for the remainder of this year. That being said Lt(N) Jenelle Carter will be assuming the role as Administration Officer and is more than capable to answer all your questions. She comes from a diverse background with the cadet program and is a very experienced officer. All questions or concerns regarding administration can be directed to jcarter@284marconi.com She will be an asset to the corps.

284 Marconi is where I started my cadet career in 1994 and it will always be my home. I will return one day and I know in the meantime that the officers and cadets will continue on with offering this excellent program. I can always be reached at Georgina.White@cadets.gc.ca and I will be cheering on all the cadets and officers of Marconi from the sidelines come November 1^st.

Thank you all for your continuing support and I wish you all the best! See you on Monday!

Lt(N) White
