We offer opportunities that youth would not be able to typically experience in other programs. For example, as an air cadet you are eligible to receive scholarships to become a glider pilot and even receive your private pilots licence. One of the premier aspects of the cadet program is the experience you are able to gain in leadership, time management, self discipline, professionalism, management and organizational skills. You also have the opportunity upon completion of certain portions of the air cadet program to earn high school credits that can be applied to for graduation. Some of the additional activities that 103 Squadron offers is a precision drill team, flight simulator training, advanced bush survival skills, public speaking, first aid training, and musical training in a marching band. One of the most memorable experiences for cadets is the opportunities they have to participate in summer camps. Each year cadets have the opportunity to apply for summer camps that range in length from 2 weeks to as long as 7 weeks. During cadet’s summer camps, they have the opportunity to learn and specialize in different parts of the air cadet program in such areas as physical fitness, leadership, survival, aviation, and musicianship. Additionally our senior cadets have the opportunity to seek summer employment at the summer camp training centers. As well, senior cadets have the opportunity to participate in exchanges to locations around the world from Japan to the Netherlands.
