Introduction to Search & Rescue Program
A great recruiting drive took place at the 2011 St. Thomas Air Show; the proof is in the glider!
Many thanks to OPC Director Marika Booton, our CRGS military partners, cadets and staff of 3 "Striker"
Squadron Strathroy, 741 "Elgin" Squadron St. Thomas, and 599 "Marc Garneau" Squadron London and all
who made this such a successful event. Another outstanding example of the partnership in action!

Captain Tim "Donor" Woods With CRGS & TACSTC cadets
Captain Tim Woods, a former cadet of 735 "Firebird" Squadron and CIC Officer with 715 "Mohawk" Squadron, and pilot of the 2009 CF-18 "Hornet" demonstration aircraft, briefed CRGS and Trenton Summer Training Centre cadets when attending the Trenton airshow. Captain Woods has given generously of his time to meet with Air Cadets from across Canada as part of his appearances at more than 30 airshows last summer.
Many thanks Captain Woods; you are a true Air Cadet and an outstanding role model for those following in your footsteps!
