Red Deer cadet gets hands-on experience as a Cadet Official
Cadet Warrant Officer First Class (WO1) Connor Evans from 24 Red Deer joined cadets from across the country in Valcartier, Quebec as a cadet official for the National Cadet Biathlon Championship from March 3-7.
This year is Evan’s first time working as one of the ammo distributors at the National Championship.
WO1 Evans is in charge of counting and distributing the rounds used by athletes during the championship and ensures that they are safely stored. This is a very important job, they make the range a safer place for the competitors and the coaches.
“It’s an awesome opportunity, I am happy to take part in this national event,” said Evans, one of the more than 50 cadet officials selected to take part at the National Biathlon Championship from across Canada.
