Cadet Corps Support Committee Call Out for Volunteers
There are two core administrative components to the Army Cadet Program.
The Military Component provides trained staff and a core training program for the cadets to keep them continuously developing and
continuously challenged – this portion of the program is organized and paid for by the Department of Defense. This portion of the program is the same across all
cadet corps across the country. The uniformed staff of the corps fall under the military component. The number of cadets in the corps and the level
of community participation the corps determine the amount of staff that the corps is permitted to have.
The Army Cadet League is a civilian organization made up of volunteers (mostly parents) with a few paid positions at the regional and national levels. The league is responsible for the definition of the training program as well as the planning and funding of the non-core portions of the cadet program. All aspects of the program outside the core is the responsibility of the league.
The military component and the league work closely together to organize and oversee the program and ensure that it stays relevant.
The portion of the league that operates at the corps level is the Support Committee and is made up completely of volunteers and parents. It is the goal of the support committee to assist the staff with arranging facilities and helping administer the non-core portions of the program of the corps to ensure that it remains operational. If you wish to become a member of the Support Committee, please contact Capt Stagg - melony.stagg@cadets.gc.ca
