Air Cadets Casino

ASPIRING pilots, pay attention. Did you know that if you are between the ages of 12-18, you can actually learn to fly for free. And that's just one of the benefits of belonging to North Vancouver's 103 Thunderbird Squadron. These air cadets seem to have fun whatever they do, whether its survival training, shooting on the range or studying for their pilots' license. On Sat. May 4, the squadron held a fun casino night and friends and family got a chance to join in. It was a great chance to mix and mingle and try your hand at a number of games. For more information about the air cadets, call (604) 987-8818.

Go to jail, go directly to jail, do not pass go. Maj. Tim Alguire had a price on his head and was going into the stockade for charity.
