  • ALWAYS check these announcements first before contacting squadron email/phone or
  • If you are reporting an absence, please text the squadron number at 780-538-3610, it is easier for the administration team to manage those messages as the phone is not actively monitored throughout the week. You may still call the number and leave a message however, but these are the only accepted methods to excuse an absence.
  • If you are a parent who it was mentioned that your cadet would need extra medical forms, they are ready for you and need to be completed ASAP. If you are unsure if your cadets have more forms, please email the Squadron Administration officer at 577air@cadets.ca
  • If you are a parent interested in becoming a screened volunteer for events like bottle drives and fundraisers, please reach out to the squadron email to get that process started.
  • Please links to our Public Facebook page and Private Group (Group is for current squadron cadets and parents only). We use these groups to share photos and other stuff like that. Official announcements and stuff are still made to this website first and foremost.
