Rick Mercer visits the Netook Gliding Center

Saturday, 26 August 2012, was the annual Air Cadet League VIP gliding day, a day where everyone who contributed to the Air Cadets throughout the year was rewarded with a glider flight. At the invitation of Joanna Howard, an Alberta Air Cadet League Executive member, and the cooperation of many individuals and the Regional Cadet Support Unit, Winnipeg, comedian Rick Mercer attended the Alberta Air Cadet NETOOK GLIDING CENTRE. Rick spent a fun-filled and busy day joking and speaking with cadets, Air Cadet League members and visitors. He also had the opportunity to get some ‘air time’ in a Schweitzer glider specially fitted with cameras to record the event. Rick interviewed cadets from 903 Strathmore Squadron and 185 Olds Squadron. The entire day was filmed by Rick‘s crew and will be a feature on the RICK MERCER REPORT sometime in the near future.
