First of all, as we are going to press we have heard that both Royal Roads and CMR (RMCSJ) both held very highly successful reunions this past weekend. We are looking forward to receiving articles and photos from both events which we will post next week.

15 Ex cadets will be finishing their canoe trip from Ottawa to RMC. A large welcoming group (cadets, staff, family & friends) will line the shore near the Memorial Arch along the route; as the paddlers work their way around the Point where they will end their five day journey at the dock just behind Panet House.
