Our mandatory training costs are covered by DND (Department of National Defence) and they supply our uniforms. They also provide our gliding program, upkeep of the aircraft, Effective Speaking Program, Power Pilot Program, International Exchange etc. This covers a great amount of our program costs.
Each squadron has a Squadron Sponsoring Committee (SSC), which needs to raise funds yearly to cover all our other costs to run the program. Such as rent, optional training activities, Band Equipment, Trips, Drill team, Operational expenses, and other FUN Events!!!
Every cadet needs to participate and be involved in fund raising activities. These activities are what we call Tagging. Tagging allows the cadets to play a role in raising funds and show and educate the community about Air Cadets.
