WEEKLY Chase the Ace Draw in Support of 161 Air Cadets! – Please Share!
Our Squadron Sponsoring Committee has partnered with Branch 69 Legion to run a weekly Chase the Ace fundraiser. Weekly draws will be posted on the 161 Air Cadets SSC Chase the Ace Facebook page. Please share with your family and friends.
One of the best things about 161 Air Cadets is that the program is free for both cadets and their families. However, many of the training activities and experiences we provide, do come with costs. To help make these opportunities possible, we ask cadets and families to support our fundraising efforts. Please consider sharing our Chase the Ace fundraiser to help us continue providing great activities for our cadets.
Funds raised help support activities such as:
Thank you for supporting 161 Air Cadets and helping us provide even more opportunities for our cadets. 
Please share this with your friends & family!
