History

The 851 “Prince Edward” Air Cadet Squadron was founded in 1977, driven by the dedication of community members led by Malcolm Campbell, who ensured the program had the resources to deliver exceptional training. As the program’s value to Prince Edward County became evident, local organizations joined forces to provide additional support. In 1988, with the help of the Kinsmen Club of Picton, the Squadron Sponsoring Committee achieved registered charity status..



Since then, the committee has continued to sustain and support the program’s growth. Its role has evolved as a distinct resource for the squadron, complementing the delivery of the cadet program in PEC. Working hand in glove, the Squadron Sponsoring Committee and 851 “Prince Edward” RCAirCS ensure this invaluable program continues to foster youth development in Prince Edward County.
