189 PORT AUGUSTA RCSCC

189 PORT AUGUSTA RCSCC The Royal Canadian Sea Cadet program is a civilian youth program delivered by DND and the Navy League of Canada. This is not a Canadian Armed Forces website.

RCSCC PORT AUGUSTA in Comox is one of the 237 communities across Canada delivering the Royal Canadian Sea Cadet program. We parade on Tuesday nights from September to June between 1815-2115 at HMCS QUADRA which is located on Goose Spit at the end of Hawkins Road in Comox, B.C. Youth aged 12-18 who join sea cadets will learn seamanship, from tying knots to sailing through the waves, navigation, pow

er boat operation, look out duties, small boat sailing, marksmanship, drill and adventure training. Our cadet program is lots of fun, and uses a traditional Naval theme as a platform to develop valuable life skills like leadership, teamwork, discipline, organization, citizenship, physical fitness, and effective communication. Along with regular mandatory maritime training, our cadets may participate in tours on 19 Wing to the flying squadrons, in visits to the 19 Wing base pool and gym, camping, orienteering, hiking, white water rafting, caving, rock climbing, and tubing at Mt. Washington as well as trips to Victoria and Hornby Island at the Outdoor Education Centre.

Excerpt from the ceremony: As we continue this evening’s review, we pause to recognize an important milestone for one of our own. Tonight marks the final parade at RCSCC PORT AUGUSTA for our Coxswain, CPO1 Merrissa Ford. From the girl who recited In Flanders’ Fields during the Comox Remembrance Day ceremony, to the young woman she has become today leading her cadets, Merrissa has always set a strong example through her leadership, dedication, and commitment to this corps. Her time with us has left a lasting impact on both peers and junior cadets alike, as well as the adult staff. As she prepares to depart for Trinity Western University this fall, we wish her every success in her post-secondary journey and beyond. Shipmate, thank you for your service, you will always remain a valued member of the PORT AUGUSTA family.

BZ to all recipients, and to the entire Ship's Company for a job well done and an outstanding year. We wish you all the luck the summer as you continue your summer journey, to CTC or otherwise.

To those cadets who are leaving us this summer for new challenges and new locations: Fair winds and following seas!
