Chairperson's Message June 2010

Welcome to our website! 

Whether you are here as a person who is curious about our program, or someone who has been involved with the Air Cadet program for years, I’d like to extend our warmest welcome and invite you to browse through the many pages of information on here.

I am particularly proud to be addressing you as the Chairman of the Air Cadet League, Ontario.  I was myself, once a cadet, rose through the ranks, served with the Cadet Instructor’s Cadre as a Captain and have for the past 12 years, been involved with the Air Cadet League.  From the ground up, I can wholly appreciate this organization.

I can speak first hand of how incredible the Royal Canadian Air Cadet program is, and what phenomenal work the Air Cadet League does to support our youth.  I am very honoured to be a part of this organization, knowing that in so many ways, we are collectively creating a better program for our youth, and in turn, a better future for Canadians.

With more than 7,000 Air Cadets in Ontario, 111 Squadrons and more than 150 Air Cadet League Directors, we have a very large and very strong presence across the province.  We support youth from the ages of 12-18 through various stages of development from leadership to effective speaking, community involvement to every corner of the aviation industry.

We cannot, however; do this alone.  Hundreds of parents volunteer in all segments of our programs, thousands of CIC Officers train our youth, and organizations come together to financially support our organization and continue to make it a viable option for the youth of Canada. 

Please feel free to take advantage of all the good information on this site and see how you can participate in our program.

Per Ardua Ad Astra.
 
With sincere appreciation,

 

D.A.(Don) Berrill CD

Chairman

Air Cadet League of Canada, Ontario Provincial Committee
