1 West Hoodies, CAP, and Virtual Training

1 West Hoodies

We are very excited to announce the launch of our 1 West hoodies on our virtual store! The hoodies come in a choice of black or blue and features the 1 West crest embroidered over the left chest and a 1 West falcon design printed on the back. All proceeds help support the squadron.

Cadet Activities Program

The Cadet Activities Program will take place during March Break from March 1st to 5th. The four main components include a geocaching challenge, a sports challenge, a specific Air Cadet skills challenge, and guest speakers. It is online, but you won’t be stuck on your computer all the time. The goal is to get cadets outside and active and also competing against cadets from all over Quebec to succeed at the challenges.

Sign up by hitting the button below! The deadline is February 12th.

Effective Speaking

Develop your public speaking skills by participating in effective speaking! A competition will be held at the squadron level on February 24th where cadets will deliver prepared and impromptu speeches. The winner will advance and compete at the regional competition, and also receive a pin to wear on their uniform.

1 West Minecraft Server

We have started a Minecraft server for us all to connect virtually during these times! We are currently working on rebuilding the Royal Montreal Regiment (RMR) as well as the monuments that surround it. If you want to contribute to rebuilding our home, send a private message on Teams to WO1 Gong so we can give you the appropriate permissions!

Our Minecraft Server Address: 1westmontreal.apexmc.co

Note: The server is hosted on Minecraft Java edition, NOT Bedrock Edition, so you will not be able to join with your phone, iPads, Xbox, nor computer if you have the Windows 10 edition. See you there!

Virtual Training

This Wednesday, February 10th, we will be continuing with online training in Microsoft Teams. After beginning the night with mini-flight activities we will have two periods of lessons.
