The Cadet Corps Of Western Canada Requests Assistance From
Veterans
During recent meetings and discussions with the Cadet League
of Canada, members of The RCEME Association of Western
Canada, The Canadian Peacekeeping Veterans Association (CPVA)
and The Canadian Association of Veterans in
United Nations Peacekeeping (CAVUNP), have been asked
to consider providing assistance and support to their local
Cadet Corps.
It is hoped that retired
Veterans will consider donations of their time, money and effort
in support of our young Cadets.
Specifically, Cadet Corps respectfully request the
following assistance and experience from retired Veterans:
1. Physical attendance as guest speakers to present training
classes, or lecture on military history subjects.
2. Provide or obtain accoutrements through contacts with regular
force units, such as badges, buttons, flags, books, music, etc.
3. Provide advice on how to get things done, when dealing with
town, municipalities, Provincial and/or Federal agencies.
4. Provide advice and assistance; letters of recommendation, sit
on Cadet promotion boards, offer service at summer camps, etc.
5. Attend Cadet Corps activities, such as parades, mess dinners,
competitions and special events.
6. Provide financial assistance;(cheques should be made out to
Army Cadet League of Canada. Specify the provincial branch and
specific Cadet Corps if
desired). Tax receipts will be issued for all private
donations.
7. Serve as a volunteer League Liaison
Representative for your local Cadet Corps.
Any Veteran who is interested in offering assistance of
any kind to his or her local Cadet Corps can obtain more
information or details by contacting the following;
