Army Cadets??
The Ultimate Challenge!
The Royal Canadian Army Cadets appeal to kids
12-18 years old craving exciting outdoor activities where their personal limits
as individuals and team-members will be tested. The hardcore outdoor-oriented
will love the challenge!
Army cadets develop abilities in the use of
map and compass, GPS technology, orienteering, first-aid, camping and survival
skills, canoeing, abseiling, trekking, mountain biking, etc. As they get more
experienced, some will be selected for parachuting, white-water rafting and
glacier climbing. They will also learn to become outdoor leaders.
Army Cadets get involved in ceremonial
military events and citizenship activities that allow them to connect to their
Canadian heritage. They develop a great sense of pride and discipline through
their involvement in a hierarchical system that allows them to hone their
leadership skills as they grow older and they learn to care for younger cadets.
In addition to their specialty training, Army
Cadets may become involved in other exciting activities like competitive
Olympic-style marksmanship and biathlon, sports competitions, music training
and competitions, cultural outings, volunteer community support, etc.
Canada represents the best playground for
teenagers interested in the outdoors. We are the organization of choice for
teens and adults interested in getting out of the classroom to explore the
planet the way it should be.
National and International Expeditions
Every year, some of our top cadets get a
chance to participate in high-level expeditions around the globe. Our
destinations in the past few years included Morocco, Australia, Costa Rica,
South Korea, Italy, Mont-Blanc, the France/Spain Pyrenees, New Zealand, the
Canadian Rockies, the Northwest Territories, and Newfoundland and Labrador.
Whatever the destination, cadets will find the ultimate challenge awaiting
them!
