Cadets Gone Virtual

By

Despite Covid-19 we continue to train, not in person, but online! Cadets have done well with adapting to the changes. We have experimented with doing joint training with sea cadet corps 85 Summerside and 323 Blue Herron. Cadets have gotten to take part in learning a variety of topics including Knots, Writing Proposals, Leadership, Naval Terminology and even How to Berth a Ship! Over the period of online training there has been Awards Nights, Promotion Parades, Jeopardy, and even a Giveaway where one of our cadets won a gift card for Sporting Intentions. Overall, online training has shown how well our cadets can adapt to any situation, even a worldwide pandemic.
