Cadets are reminded that they are responsible for their own personal and cadet issued property.  It is highly recommended to cadets not to bring electronics, jewlery, large quantities of cash, etc... to parade nights and other cadet activities.  The Squadron will not take responsibility for lost kit.  We caution cadets not to leave kit downstairs in the washrooms at the Armoury.  If you are bringing your uniform or PT gear with you to cadets to change into make sure that you have a back pack to put your clothes into and leave it upstairs.
