While the summer months might be quiet at the "ship",
they are certainly busy for many of the Sea Cadets of RCSCC Quinte.
Each summer, many cadets attend training camps that range from
2 to 6 weeks in length at one of the Summer Training Centres within
Canada. Even Personnel and Senior Cadets are away from the Ship
as they participate in these training camps as instructors and
Staff Cadets. Training centres for RCSCC Quinte include: HMCS
ACADIA - Clementsport, Nova Scotia, HMCS ONTARIO - Kingston, Ontario
and HMCS QUADRA - Comox, British Columbia
It is during this time, that our cadets enter into
one of the four cadet program trade groups: Sailing, Music, Boatswain
or Gunnery. Along with the skills required for their trade, they
develop leadership qualities and have the opportunity to develop
or rekindle friendships with other sea cadets from across Canada.
