Going to miss a night of cadets? SEND US AN EMAIL!

Cadets can only be excused if an email is sent to absent@cycloneaircadets.com . Please be sure to include your rank, last name and reason for being excused. Parents, we prefer this email come from your cadet rather than you.

Emails to Flight Commanders or the CO will NOT get you excused. Being considered absent may count against promotions or accomplishing your training level, so its important to be at cadets whenever possible!


New Recruits - WE WANT YOU!

Recruits are welcome to come to the squadron any time after their 12th birthday. Please bring your parents or guardians along to come out and see what cadets is all about! We ask that you come and take a look at our opening parade at 6:45 pm and then join us in the library at St. Thomas Aquinas Catholic High School to discuss the program with the officers and cadets. If you decide to join, you will need the following:

  • A photocopy of your birth certificate (or passport / proof of citizenship)
  • A photocopy of your health card (or proof of private health insurance)
  • A parent / guardian to sign the permission forms.

Unfortunately new cadets are not permitted to take part in activities until all paperwork has been submitted. Therefore it is crucial that parents plan to spent the entire first night with us (until 9pm).
