Local Training

The first area is the LOCALLY DIRECTED ACTIVITIES. During the training year which runs from September to June each year the cadets participate in weekly training on Monday nights. These activities are broken down into four training levels: Green; Red; Silver; Gold.
Weekend Activities are split between Locally Directed Activities, and AREA DIRECTED ACTIVITIES. 
For senior cadets, we have the Advanced Leadership Program.

2293 Army Cadets meet Monday evenings at the Sgt Hugh Cairns VC Armoury located on Idylwyld Drive in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. Our Parade nights go from 6:00pm until 9:15pm from September until June each training year.

 

Our local training is broken down into 6 subgroups based on age and how long the cadets have been a member of the unit. When a cadet joins the unit who is older than 12 years old, on a case by case basis, we have the options to fast track a cadet into a higher level to ensure that they at the appropriate learning level.

 

These levels are broken up into the following training areas:

  • Participate in Citizenship Activities

  • Perform Community Service

  • Participate as a Member of a Team

  • Participate in Physical Activities and Track Activities

  • Fire the Cadet Air Rifle

  • Serve in an Army Cadet Corps

  • Field Training Activities (Survival, Knots, Environmental Awareness)

  • Map & Compass, GPS Navigation

  • Leadership
