We are asking each cadet to pay for 1 book of tickets ($50.00) upfront. The cadet then sells the tickets to friends and family, making back the $50.00. Once sold, the completed ticket stubs are then returned to the Squadron. Please pick up your book ASAP (the sooner you buy them, the longer you will have to sell them)! * These Tickets make great Christmas Gifts! * ** FINAL TRAINING NIGHT FOR 2012 - 19 DECEMBER 2012 ** FIRST TRAINING NIGHT FOR 2013 - 9 JANUARY 2013 Comments are closed.
