176 Sponsoring Committee

Squadron Sponsoring Committee (SSC)

The Air Cadet Program is a unique partnership between the Royal Canadian Air Force and the Air Cadet League. This partnership can be found at all levels of the program: at the national level, the provincial level and at the community and squadron level.

Each Squadron is sponsored by a local organization. Depending on the unit, they may include parents, community members, service clubs, town councils and corporations.  The sponsors form a Sponsoring Committee that assists in the operation of the Squadron.

Sponsoring committees are responsible for:

• providing suitable accommodation for cadet training and activities;

• promoting the Cadet Program to the community; and

• fundraising and managing funds for additional activities not supported by the Canadian Forces.

Members of the SSC should have a passion for Air Cadets and be willing to donate time to assist their Squadron to be successful. 

Here at 176 Squadron we have a dedicated group of volunteers who form our Sponsoring Committee.
