Attention Parents and Cadets...
Sadly, I have to announce that we can have no in person training until after 31 August 2020. This includes Summer training Centres, Local training, and Officer Training. If there are any questions, let me know.

The Lt. Cdr. Barry Bevvan Scholarship Award
This year we were able to create a new scholarship for one of our cadets. This new scholarship is being sponsored by former Quinte cadets.
It is presented to a cadet who serves as an example in leadership, commitment, excellence, and service to others.
This year due to the pandemic we were unable to present any awards in person. CPO1 Bashall was the recipient of this award. She was so pleased to receive it, that after she received the award she put her uniform on and had a photo taken in uniform with the certificate.
CPO1 Bashall is headed to Carlton University in the fall to study architecture.
It is with much joy and gratitude that we say thank you to the John and Bernice Parrott Foundation. Their amazing gift and generosity will go a long way to help us provide a safe and positive space for our cadets. In this time of uncertainty to be able to move forward on such an important project is an amazing step forward. With this donation and the funds raised from our bottle drive we will be able to complete the dock-emergency exit and shoreline restoration.
BOTTLE DRIVE SUCCESS: Totals are in: $7375.60. Unbelievable success after just one month.
**Got Empties? We're still taking them!!**
Thank-you to all of our supporters in the Hastings, Prince Edward, and the greater Quinte area! We are truly humbled with your overwhelming support you have been giving us during our bottle drive!
Those cans and bottles you drop off help put musical instruments in a cadet's hand, puts a teen in a sailboat or a power boat to learn seamanship, qualifying as an amateur radio operator, learning first aid, becoming better versions of themselves, and many other things, as well as a safe place to belong.
If you have more bottles and cans piling up, we're still taking them until 31 August. Feel free to maintain your social distance, and drop them off on our front porch, anytime, 24 hours a day! Tell your friends!

Again, Thank-you Everyone!
On May 13th RCSCC Quinte had one of our cadets age out. CPO2 Donaldson will turn in his uniform once it is safe to do so.

Due to the pandemic we are unable to give CPO2 Donaldson a proper send off. We do however wish him the best in his future endeavours.
Thank you for your time and service to the corps.
Fair winds and following seas.
