Task Order #2
With the coming of the fall season normally comes the close of our summer activities, and a return to our regular routines. Summer vacations wind down, we return to school, to work, and, of course, back to Cadets. This year, however, continues to be very different. It is assumed that the COVID-19 pandemic could last 18 months or longer, and the virus will likely return in multiple waves continuing to pose a threat to the Canadian Public. Therefore, a return to normalcy is not forecasted any time soon and we should expect to prepare for a new normal. As such, we have been hard at work to prepare a plan for what the return of the Cadet Program will look like. The safety and security of all who participate in our programs remain our top priority, and has been at the heart of every decision made. Steps to ensure that the proper precautions have been taken to ensure we do everything we can to protect our cadets and staff and prevent the Cadet Program from becoming a vector for the further transmission of COVID-19 are being put in place. To provide corps / squadron staff time to ensure they are able to support the possible resumption of limited in-person cadet activities, there will be a delay in the start-up of in-person Cadet Activities until at least 1 October 2020. |
Corps and squadrons are encouraged to use the time in September to connect virtually with their cadets and parents.
A letter to the parents can be found here, along with an overview of the changes here. The Officers, staff and SSC of 243 will be hard at work in the coming weeks to implement the requirements outlined to provide an amazing and safe program for 2020/2021. We will be providing an update in the coming weeks on what Fall 2020 will look like for 243 Cadets. Thank you for your continued commitment in keeping your friends and family safe. Additional resources can be found here.
