About the Squadron Sponsoring Committee (SSC)
The Squadron Sponsoring Committee (SSC) is a team of dedicated parent volunteers working side-by-side with Captain Chung and the staff to enrich every cadet's experience. While the core cadet program provides the foundation, our committee steps in to power the rest—managing fundraising, organizing events, and securing the financial and logistical support needed to make special activities possible.
Our Mission We are committed to ensuring every cadet can take full advantage of a program that builds strong leaders, engaged citizens, and confident young adults. Through community partnerships and parent involvement, we help provide the resources for unforgettable experiences that set our youth up for the future.
Behind Every Cadet is a Community That Cares — Be part of it!
Join the Squadron Sponsoring Committee
Our Air Cadet program thrives thanks to a strong partnership between military staff, dedicated cadets, and involved parent volunteers. We invite all parents to take an active role by joining the Squadron Sponsoring Committee (SSC) or helping out at events throughout the training year.
Volunteering with the SSC is a rewarding way to stay connected to your cadet’s experience, meet other parents, and ensure our youth have the funding, equipment, and logistical support needed for squadron activities. Whether you can lend a hand for a few hours at a specific event or take on an ongoing role, every bit of support makes a direct impact.
