Cadet squadron plans model show at airport

The 822 Tutor Squadron of the Royal Canadian Air Cadets will host their second annual model show and exhibition on Oct. 19 at the Lt-Colonel Ronald Gowing Cadet Youth Development Centre at the Region of Waterloo International Airport.

The 822 Tutor cadets have a strong representation from Wellington County, including Mapleton, organizers note.

Special guest for this event is Guelph-Wellington Emergency Services Field Supervisor Mike Vander Meulen, who credits a lot of his foundations in the community to the air cadets program.

The 822 Cadets from Wellington include Flight Sergeant Lori-anne Little, Flight Sergeant James Voisin and Flight Sergeant Matthew Farrow. These cadets will be active in this model show.

The cadet program always pays tribute to its veterans and community heroes.

This year the group is paying tribute to the memory of Adrienne Roberts, a Guelph-Wellington paramedic and a victim of domestic violence. There will be a tribute cenotaph in her memory guarded by the cadets’ ceremonial honour guard. Opening ceremonies for the event will be at 11am, followed by a memorial to fallen veterans at noon.  At 3pm the model show awards presentation will be held.
