What makes these teams even more unique is the fact that most of the members are members of the air traffic controller community. “We have fun, we socialize and raise money for a great cause,” he said. “Plus, the money all stays local.” In addition to the tour- nament, members of the community are welcomed to check out the silent auction, which runs on April 13 until 4 p.m. at the arena.

When Nature Calls: Camping Safety

njoying the great outdoors is a pastime many people Eshare. Whether it’s hiking for a week or enjoying a day trip on foot, exploring your natural surroundings is always fun. Whether you’re out for the day or for the week, the ultimate safety of your outdoor expedition will be determined by your pre-planning and organiza- tion. Anticipate and prepare for potential dangers. First and foremost, know your personal capabilities! Make sure you are physically able to complete the trip. Small blisters or colds can become much worse with the exer- tion of even a short hike. Remember, medical aid is dif- cult, if not impossible to obtain in remote areas.

Clothing: Clothing should be light to wear and should not hamper your movements. It should protect you from heat, cold, bushes, and other vegetation and should keep you dry. Bright clothing can protect you from being mistaken for game should there be a hunter in the area and it can aid in discovery and rescue. Loose clothing retains heat more ef ciently than tight clothing. Rain gear should breathe and not allow condensation on the inside, making you damp and chilled. A hat should protect and shade you from sun, rain, wind or cold. Wool socks will keep you warm even when wet. Footwear is especially important.

Continued from page 1 equipment and home building products, ultimately, the compa- ny also hopes to become a staple in the community. As a business with more than 48 years under its belt, Lillycrop explained that part of the secret to their suc- cess has been having a good re- lationship with the community and follow the same principle in Quinte West. “Everyone has been incredible and so welcom- ing,” he said. “It’s a small com- munity but there’s such a big connection. It’s just a great feel- ing.” At the opening ceremony welcoming Lillycrop and his crew to the area was Quinte West Mayor Jim Harrison. He noted he was glad to have a new business in town and added they would be an asset within the community. As their first official gesture of goodwill, at the open- ing ceremony, members of Bry- an’s Auction Services donated $1,500 to both Big Brothers Big Sisters of Hastings and Prince Edward Counties and the Tren- ton Military Family Resource Centre (MFRC). As for why his company chose the MFRC, he said they were always happy to support organizations that took care of military families, veter- ans and Canada’s currently serv- ing members. “What they do is amazing,” he said. “Everything from helping families with relo- cation worries to helping people cope with the mental stresses Quinte West Mayor Jim Harrison (middle) presents company president Ken Lillycrop (right) with a certifi that come with the job.

Speaking to how pleased they were to be recipients of the donation was Amy LeGresley, the MFRC’s special events coor- dinator. “The MFRC is honoured to have been chosen by Bryan’s Auction Services to receive a do- nation,” she said. “It speaks to the values of their organization that they selected not one but two local non-profits to make donations to launch their expan- sion in the Quinte community.” She noted that the funds would likely go towards this year’s In- visible Ribbon campaign, which is raising money to help expand the centre’s mental health ser- vices.

n years past, the Trenton Legion (Branch 110) has kick started the donation cam- Ipaign for the Camp Trillium Charity Golf Tournament, and this year was no dif- ferent. Tournament organizers Sergeant (Sgt.) Phil Degrace, Sgt. Kevin Palmer and Sgt. John Dassen and 8 Air Maintenance Squadron (8 AMS) Command Team Lieu- tenant-Colonel (Lt.-Col.) Brian Tang and Chief Warrant Officer (CWO) Scott Creamer recently visited the Trenton Legion and were presented a cheque for $500.00 as a ��nation towards the support of the Camp Trillium charity. To date, 8 AMS, along with volunteers, sponsors and participants, have raised over $174,000.00 for the charity. Camp Trillium offers recreational opportunities that bring children with cancer, and their families together, in an environment, which normal- izes relationships and experiences, assisting with the healing process. 8 AMS’ support of this charity dates back to 1993 when the first tournament was organized. Although organizers of the event have changed throughout the years, the commitment continues as we are hosting the 25th Annual Camp Trillium Charity Golf Tournament at Oak Hills Golf Course on June 7, 2019.

DeWolfe Hastings and Prince Edward Not long after the sun makes its debut at Regiment CFS Alert, did members of the station ad- venture out in the -35°C weather for the ÿ rst Geocache trip of 2019. Also known as the Sherpa Club, the Geocache club in Alert has over 20 different locations to discover. Some of the caches are on sta- tion, and some are up to 10 km off station where members typically travel to them by hiking, snowshoeing, or cross country skiing. The next recreational trip is sched- uled to the nearby Williams Island, which might have the most elusive cache of them all.

Members of the military and civilian community are welcomed to come to the Warrant Officers’ and Sergeants’ Mess at 8 Wing Trenton to scope out the selection of post-secondary institutions and over a dozen other vendors on display. Everyone from col- leges, universities, trade schools, career assistance businesses and more will be on site to answer ques- tions says event coordinator Captain (Capt.) Bran- don Rose. “Civilians, military and families are all welcome to come out that day,” he said. “I think it’s a really good resource because it presents everything you need and throws them into one building.” As for the benefit of hosting an Education and Training Fair, Capt. Rose said it came down to making things easier for those looking for answers. “It’s good to let transitioning members know what’s available to them because we do have a lot of programs available both internally and externally,” he explained. “For members who are still staying in, there are always more opportunities to get more education. Knowing what’s out there, seeing the schools and talking to them to help come up with a plan is really helpful.” The free event will run the entire day from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. In addition to the Education and Training Fair, a Second Career Assistance Network (SCAN) workshop for releasing members will be held. This event will provide people with the opportunity to get access to all those involved in the transition pro- cess. “We bring back out some of the key players like Photo submitted pension, the release section, personnel selection of- fice and everyone related to the process,” he said.
