[Alex Mayo]

Commander's Remarks: SENIORS, PARENTS AND CADETS
Cadets this week, we will be having a plane wash from 1700 hrs to 1830 hrs at the CAP hanger. Any cadet who is currently using the plane is highly encouraged to attend, but all cadets are welcome to participate.  

This week we will be training in Emergency Service during the first training block, which will build off of the great training we had at our UBX. Dress warm and be prepared to spend time outside. Cadets will be doing drill in the second training block so come prepared to drill. 

Phase II COVID:  We received information this week that our wing is now under Phase II COVID restrictions. Due to this change of status, we ask that all members take their temperature at home or by a no-touch thermometer before entering the meeting place. Facial coverings are required indoors, even if social distancing can be maintained. When outdoors, social distancing should be sufficient. For further details, feel free to visit https://www.gocivilairpatrol.com/covid-19-remobilization and view the MNWG Phase II document.
