Departure Information
Documents Required To Travel
Page # 16
To Board the Bus
Must have their health card (not a copy).
Must have a completed Cadet Transportation Form. (think of
this as your bus ticket)
This form tells the summer training location if the cadet requires
transportation home or if parent/guardian intends to pick up your
daughter/son at the conclusion of camp.
If this changes after the cadet starts camp, please contact the training
centre or myself with the changes.
Changes to Leave Restrictions
Page 17
If you need to change who can sign out a cadet from their
summer training centre, the cadet Leave Authorization
Form must be completed and sent to the Summer Training
Centre prior to visit.
If you are not sure who you authorized then complete the
form with the names you desire and send it with the cadet.
The Form may be found on the Chadburn Website Under
Summer Training Forms.
Please let the Summer Training Officer know of the changes.
This can be sent to [email protected]
Other Forms to Consider
Page 18
Personal Items Form – if you are allowing the cadet to
take items that are above the prescribed kit list.
Over the Counter Medication Form – for any
medication being sent with the cadet other than those
documented on their Medical Questionnaire.
Smoking Permission Form – if you are giving a cadet
consent to smoke (some centre’s don’t allow this), We don’t
recommend this.
Code of Conduct – each cadet will need to complete this
upon arrival at camp.
At Camp
Page # 19
Your first day at camp, your bags will be searched for any prohibited items.
If your summer kit doesn’t fit, notify your team commander who will arrange for an exchange at base supply.
If you sent a cell phone, you will be asked to sign this in with the office. (cadets can use these on no training times but must resign them back in). We suggest you send a calling card only, leave your cell phones at home.
Each Cadet will be given a training bonus of $60 per week. This is paid based on the training course duration. A Cadet account is setup for access to these funds for incidental purchases.
Some outside activities will require a nominal fee which can be paid from the training bonus. It is the cadets decision to attend these events.
