The Club's longest standing project is the support of Air Cadets. It began in wartime with the 138 Squadron, R.C.A.C. and later in peacetime with the 598 SABRE Squadron. The first unit was commanded by Captain Roy Willmott, a veteran of World War One.
Today the Squadron is commanded by Captain Joann Neal. Cobourg Rotary Past President Gael Moore is the Squadron Sponsoring Committee (SSCC) Chair.
Over the years the officers and civilian instructors have served the Corps with efficiency and dedication. Cadets are trained in citizenship, navigation, aircraft mechanics, small arms, drill & deportment, and first aid. Cadets showing proficiency and excellence may be recommended for special summer courses at camps across Canada where advanced training is given.
