I will always look back to my days in the 2136 Victoria Canadian Scottish Regiment Army Cadets as best days of my life and the as C/L/Cpl Jones @Veron CL 1982 the best times I had in cadets =)
i am an air cadet with 223 red lion squadron in vernon belive it or not. i have done air cadet traning at the camp many times i recently went and slept in barrak b-34!!

@u452u The CATO's changed back in December of 2010, you can no longer be a cadet and a reservist at the same time, you must leave cadets the moment you're sworn into the Canadian Forces, the Department of National Defence also updated recruiting age for the Primary Reserves to 17 at around the same time, due to the new training courses. I know this because I'm a reservist and was told I could no longer be a cadet, I'm now volunteering at my old corps as a reservist NCM.
@u452u It depends on what you're into, Army Cadets focus a lot on Expedition and marksmen, it also depends on the kind of corps you're going to join and their resources, some corps are well funded and have amazing staff while others can be the total opposite so certain programs like a marksmen team wont be available but you can still do the marksmen portion at Camp. Also if you've reached a rank and certain training level in the air cadets you may be able to "Transfer" that rank to Army Cadets.
@JoshuaaaEss I was in the same boat as you, I joined cadets at 14 and went to camp for the first time at 15, I spent 3 years in cadets and 3 summers at camp and it changed me for the better. I left cadets at the rank of Chief Warrant Officer and was sworn in the next day to the Canadian Forces Primary Reserves. I wouldn't have changed anything for the world.
This last summer was most likely my last summer spent at VACSTC as a cadet, I spent 3 summers there, 2 as course cadet, and 1 as staff. I loved every moment of it, sure there was some bad moments but all the good ones make up for it. Everyones individual experience will vary that can be guaranteed. I am young enough to spend one more summer there but I have decided to pursue a career in the Canadian Forces, but for those who are looking to join the RCAC this may change your life.
This was considerably helpful! I'm looking into joining the RCAC (Army, not Air) in literally a few days, so I wanted to learn a bit more before I went to join! Thanks so much =)
they make camp look like so much fun 3 years i went every year some one did somthing to hurt me or make me feal bad some girl tryes to kill me none of the girls like me cuz i hang with guys some parts are fun but to say i am glad to not be going back cuz off all that happens evey year to me

cool, my lil brother's going there, im going to Penhold, its the base for Air cadets.....for band and ect....OMG those barracks looks soooooo familiar!
@MatrixMasta2009 Yes and no, some staff, depending on who you get might not let you do it if you're absolutely terrified of heights, but don't think you're lucky yet. Some staff will make you go over whether you like it or not, once you reach a certain point on the absail or ropes course there's no way to go but forward or down, the best thing to do is just to get it over with. I speak from experience I have an extreme phobia of heights so I just close my eyes and keep going and breath properly.
@Freepepsi42 Yes the course is called Basic Marksman, you can choose your course when your corps starts to fill out forms for camp, just talk to your Training Officer or CO and tell them what you want to take.
@MatrixMasta2009 And also keep in mind the General Training cadets won't be doing the ropes or absail courses, they have their own miniature obstacle course. Only the CL's (or the Basics as they are now known) get to do the Absail tower and the ropes course, and the CLI's do it as well but they get the cliff (as shown in the video) instead of the Absail tower.
dont get mad im in air cadets where on the same side i live on vancover isand right next to vernon i wish i was in army cadets but in my town campbell river there about 6 army cadets and thats it and there limited to doing things no funding or go with air cadets 50 strong or sea cadets 50 strong too but i dont want to die being locked in a boiler room whal the ship is sinking rofl.
@MRVIKING123 You mean Basic Expidition, there's a difference between adventure and expidition, Adventures a CLI course. I'm set to staff Basic Expidition but planing to switch to either Basic Leadership or Marksmen as staff.
No you can't take any of your gear, you will be issued gear when you get there. Don't take any civilians if you're a course cadet because you won't beable to wear them at all while you're there, an exception would be PJ's. Take hygiene items, socks including your whool ones issued at your corps, take your uniform (of course) and you will most likely be issued a few other things such as PT gear at your home corp to take with you to camp.
Well if you live in Ontario there's a good chance that you won't be going to this camp, instead you'll probably end up going to CFB Bordon or Black Down known as it's ACSTC name.
I am a Master corporal and ive never went to summer camp! lol.....Well my corps is located in ONT so will they be flying me there??? That would be cool!
Every cadet is provided transportation to camp by the DND, depending on where you live you will either be bused or flown to camp. Everyone gets bused or flown to camp whether it's their first year or fifth. The transportation costs nothing.
seriouly . cause im leaving saturday too. are you doing basic trainning. if you reaad this before you leave im private paschal from 2618 rocky mountain rangers
i joined the royal army cadets a year ago i am a private now i love it i just had my first F.T.X and im going to vernon now for my first time my core is 1922 and my regiment is westies i reccomend any one to join any army cadet core its an awsome experience u will never forget!
Yeah CL was an awsome summer, we had a great platoon commander and some pretty cool people in our platoon, yes that includes you too Jones. Can't wait until the next time I go to Vernon.
@TashaRules staff is fun just be careful what you go as make sure you like what you apply for it was great when i did it in 08 at vernon and 09 in connaught bush craft all the way wish i could still go but im to old now dang age limit enjoy all the time you can in cadets i know i did treasure every moment good and bad it will make you a better person in the end
Yeah I'm applying for staffing in Vernon or Connaught as well, but I'm also applying for advanced training so it'll be difficult to say if I'm for sure staffing this year.
Im going to this camp in the summper ^^" ahah me and my Bestfriend are going at the same time [= I joined cadets half way threw the year so i dont know everything yet lol
To train the Canadian Forces soldiers, airmen, and sailors in basic military skills, drill/combat/leadership etc. before they move onto their more advanced courses.
Note: Camp Vernon is strictly a Cadet camp thats why it's called VACSTC, the only time it's being used by someone other then cadets is for parties and the occassional reservists from kelowna, it's not a CF BMQ training center.
I live in Vernon too, I'm the 1705 BCD's. We Get 60 bucks a week in Army Cadets in the summer Camp, It is fun, more People should join. Whats funny in our Core is we don't have any Corporals, only Cadets, Troopers, Master Corporals, and Above.
we get payed 6 bucks a week (360 for 6 weeks) basics earn from 120 to 180 bucks and now the new CL's will just earn 180, seeing as their course was cut down to 3 weeks instead of 6.
thoughs were the good days...i remember the guys were mad at me in basic marksmenship... fun days expetionaly adventure 5 platoon 08.. i came back with no feelings in my legs but it was worth it.. if i was abil to go back in time i would go back to the canoeing trip with cameron... and amber u forgot to log out of my username agian.....
OMFG memories 101, me and 3 friends cried in class when we saw this video... the song is perfect everything about it screams vernon... i would recomend vernon and sunscreen :P:P WHOOO CHARLIE 06 GUARD 07 STAFF 08
Hey Guys Sgt Prince here i hope you guys had a lot of fun this summer up on the hill, i never felt so good to staff all the lucky young lads and gals.I hope to see many of you next year in CL. And remember if your not at camp or home corp or are keep the language professional you guys are ambassadors to cadets and this is a public website so keep it appropriate! well got to jet have a good year guys and hope to see you guys again!
yea idk, im the type of person that is really close to my parents so i got homesick my 2nd day so i was barely able to do 2 weeks idk bout 6 weeks, and me and my dad are planning a trip, ur right about basic nothing gets done there its basically just sitting around doing nothing but cleaning your tents (barracks) and getting yelled at for the dumbest reasons, i dont reccommend basic to ANYONE! it sucks
yea im like you i get homesick right away lol i got homesick 5 minutes after i left my parents, i cant go to cl cuz me and my dad are planning a trip but the year after ill consider it
yea u no what stfu u ugly whore the only reason the MP's had to come up to tent city was because of u assholes i got stolen from 2 F'ING TIMES! so just shut the **** up
YAY!! I got promoted to corporal now because of my AWESOME effort! (lol). but my corps sucks :( because we only have like 20 some cadets and we are losing money to do stuff. but we just had an excersise this weekend (Operation Mr.Clean)it was fun. the whole point of it was to teach cadets proper care of their uniform. anyways, i might go to basic this summer but i KNOW I will get homesick :( does anyone else? Any sugestions? P.S. Check my VIDEO!
it's open to every army cadet for training durring the summer if you're a cadet you'll beable to go if not you can still join but you have to wait for the summer after this one to go.
Iam an army cadet and 9660104 is my dad and a former Air Force Cadet, he put me into army because you dont do anything in air except classes' and drill,
I'am happy to be part of Army Cadets, As my dad says its an option in life, and it will benifit me when an employer is reading my resume and he/she reads:
Royal Army Cadet 2007-whatever year i leave (i plan to stay till i age out the join canadian army and fight for my country!
If you are under 12 or 12-18 You should join army cadets it
(to continue) it will be an experence you will never forget. I just joined and ive already gone on 2 Camp trips and have done stuff people not in cadets wouldnt do, like:
Fitness Tests, Gone up to the cold north for a weekend and slept in an army barrack with the only heat: a fire, ive aten IMP's (The food the troops eat in afgan. and Iraq), i know my basic drill, im currently trying out for the rifle drill team, shot a rifle and plenty more! Its a truely great experience. and i thank my dad
Hey those riffles are powerful and painful on the kick back even when i first shot a daisy air riffle is scared me and had me close my eyes but not any more i got used to it pretty fast.
i friggin hait standing at attention for 2 hours straight!!!

YAY!! I got promoted to corporal now because of my AWESOME effort! (lol). but my corps sucks :( because we only have like 20 some cadets and we are losing money to do stuff. but we just had an excersise this weekend (Operation Mr.Clean)it was fun. the whole point of it was to teach cadets proper care of their uniform. anyways, i might go to basic this summer but i KNOW I will get homesick :( does anyone else? Any sugestions? P.S. Check my VIDEO!

Iam an army cadet and 9660104 is my dad and a former Air Force Cadet, he put me into army because you dont do anything in air except classes' and drill,
I'am happy to be part of Army Cadets, As my dad says its an option in life, and it will benifit me when an employer is reading my resume and he/she reads:
Royal Army Cadet 2007-whatever year i leave (i plan to stay till i age out the join canadian army and fight for my country!
If you are under 12 or 12-18 You should join army cadets it
AIDScotchTape 4 years ago
(to continue) it will be an experence you will never forget. I just joined and ive already gone on 2 Camp trips and have done stuff people not in cadets wouldnt do, like:
Fitness Tests, Gone up to the cold north for a weekend and slept in an army barrack with the only heat: a fire, ive aten IMP's (The food the troops eat in afgan. and Iraq), i know my basic drill, im currently trying out for the rifle drill team, shot a rifle and plenty more! Its a truely great experience. and i thank my dad
