Due to illness and work commitments, we unfortunately have to cancel tonight’s SSC parent meeting. A large portion of our executive team is unable to attend.

It’s been a tough spring for sickness going around, and we appreciate your understanding.

We’ll share a new meeting date as soon as possible.

We are looking for a few more volunteers to help support our upcoming bingos on April 26 and May 17 from 4:00 PM to 9:00 PM.

These bingos are incredibly important to our program, raising close to $5,000 that goes directly toward supporting our Cadets. It is a commitment we take seriously, and we need your help to ensure we can continue holding this fundraising spot.

If you are available to volunteer for one or both dates, we would truly appreciate your support.

Please contact Susan French on BAND, or reach out to the SSC by email or through a message on our page.

Thank you for helping us support our Cadets.

💔 sending love to the family, friends, cadets, and staff who know this cadet.

It is with profound sadness that we share the news that officials and emergency services have confirmed the passing of a cadet following the tragic bus accident that occurred yesterday in Sainte‑Rose‑de‑Watford, Quebec, transporting members of the Cadet Program to an activity.

Our hearts are with the cadet’s family, friends, and with all members of the cadet community who are mourning this deeply felt loss. We extend our sincere and heartfelt condolences during this incredibly difficult time.

Out of respect for the grieving family and all those affected, no further details will be shared at this time.

For those who feel moved to do so, we invite you to take a quiet moment of personal reflection in honour of those impacted. Thank you for your compassion, care, and understanding.
