How to Join 2833 Oxford RC(Army)CC

Army Cadets take part in a variety of training activities designed to help you become more self-confident, develop your leadership skills, become an engaged citizen, and improve your physical fitness and communication skills.  Cadets meet every Wednesday and some weekends throughout the school year.  Cadets can attend courses at summer training centers during the summer months.  There is no cost to cadets to attend summer training, in fact, they receive a paid training bonus for the duration of their summer training.   

If you are between the ages of 12 and 18, inclusive, and are interested in joining 2833 Oxford Royal Canadian Army Cadet Corps, please visit us at the Royal Canadian Legion in Woodstock.  We parade on Wednesday's during the school year, from 6:30 to 9:30pm. The Department of National Defence and The Army Cadet League of Canada work together to provide the facilities and material required to operate each cadet corps.  As such, there is no cost to join this program!  Cadets are not members of the military and make no commitments regarding future military service.   However, those who decide to join the Forces later in life start out with the advantage of having learned valuable skills through Army Cadets. 

If desired, you can download the joining instructions from the following link and return a completed personal information form to the Cadet Building on a Wednesday night, between 6:30 and 9:30pm. We also require photocopies of a birth certificate and health card. A meeting with your parents will be arranged prior to joining cadets. You will then receive your uniform (free of charge), and that’s it!!!
