Welcome to the Home of Army Cadets in Pacific Region

Cadets tie a ropeThe Pacific Region army cadet website has been created to detail the opportunities that are available to army cadets, and present news and information regarding the program. Currently there are 49 army cadet units (called “corps”) located in towns and cities all throughout BC. There may be a corps in your hometown. Over 2000 BC youths are involved in the army cadet program. Nearly 400 adult instructors, provide supervision, training and administrative support to the Army Cadets. Each corps has a sponsoring committee from within the local community, which raises funds for Army Cadet Corps.
 
The army cadet website provides insight into this dynamic program and its many opportunities. You will be amazed at the accomplishments of the youth that participate in this program. Former cadets have become successful in their chosen career or promoted Canadian sport, do in large part to their cadet experiences.
 
“As an army cadet you will be challenged to go places that you have only dreamed about, and do activities that you never thought possible. The challenge is yours. Best of all, the program is free to join!”
 
The army cadet program is a federal government program delivered by the Department of National Defence. The program is designed for youth who are interested in learning new skills, experiencing adventurous activities, national or international expeditions and travel, and meeting others with similar interests.
