From the happy memories of a Facebook Chat between several former members of the squadron back in 2012, came the idea that we should organize a reunion. Most of us have incredible memories from the years we were together. So many friendships were formed not only within our Squadron, but with other Squadrons near us in Lanigan and Saskatoon. It wasn't all Parade and airplanes - we also had many opportunities to socialize through dances and sporting events. Many of us drove 45 minutes with parent supervisors every Thursday night. It was a big part of our lives.
I don't know about you, but I am forever grateful for the lessons I learned through the training we received, and for the support of my peers back then and still have to this day.
So, here we are, 12 years later, finally organizing the Reunion. I'm pretty excited about seeing old friends and meeting new friends from other eras.
I have plans to expand on this site as we go, I am in the process of gathering pictures and information. If you happen to have pictures, mementos or trivia, we would love to hear/see it!
Hope to see you soon!
