The Friends of the Forces Fellowship from Moose Jaw were pleased to be one of the sponsors of the annual Dinner with the Snowbirds banquet, organized by the Canadian Aviation Historical Society (CAHS) and the Royal Canadian Air Force Association ( RCAFA) 600 Wing, Regina. Eleven members of the RCAF Snowbirds from 15 Wing met with Air Cadets from Regina and area on Nov. 24. Three Air Cadet squadrons from Regina and one from Indian Head were represented at the dinner.
The 431 Snowbird Squadron delegation was led by Team Lead Snowbird #1, Brett Parker and included a mix of pilots and technicians. The purpose of the event is to provide an opportunity for Air Cadets to have an informal opportunity to meet with Snowbird team members. Each table included Air Cadets and one member of the Snowbirds along with members of the CAHS and RCAFA. Many Air Cadets go on to serve in the RCAF, thus the dinner is an opportunity to encourage the interest of future members of the RCAF, a primary mission of the Snowbirds.
