Emma Dube is a member of 1726 Royal Canadian Army Cadet Corps in Comox who is training other cadets this summer in the Okanagan. Cadet Dube is a senior cadet employed as a staff cadet to assist with the training program. Cadets enrolled in band courses focus almost exclusively on music training to improve their skills with their chosen instruments, but they also have time for recreational swims, team sports and visits to Vernon. During the summer, more than 1,100 army, sea and air cadets from Western Canada will spend up to six weeks in the Okanagan Valley training centre, expanding the training they receive at their home corps, developing new skills and forming friendships. — Vernon Army Cadet Summer Training Centre
