From the beggining |
Where we are now |
1st Williams Lake Junior Cadets Society was created in March 2017 to fill an need for organized, affordable youth development for youth aged 10 and 11, but has expanded to include youth 8 through 12!

As we are entering our 2nd training year, Cadets have the option of whether to attend on Tuesdays at the Fire Hall in 150 Mile House, or Wednesdays in the lower hall of the Legion!

This unique program focuses on youth development, mental health and safety. There will be a combination of lessons, activities, and guest speakers to keep youth engaged and to help them to reach their full potential.
