Anyone know the guest password for CTC blackdow?

I am going to Rocky Mountain CTC and i arrive a day before the course starts, I know ill obviously unpack but that do I do for the other 6 hours? Also if anyone else is attending RMCTC feel free to say here.

My travel itinerary says that I’m leaving for Blackdown by bus on July 4th, which is today. However, all of the information that I’ve collected from Blackdown on social media (the official Facebook & Instagram) suggests that cadets should be arriving tomorrow, July 5th.

Now, I could just show up to my pick-up spot and see if there’s a bus or not, but that’s tedious and takes up too much time.

So in short, is my travel itinerary messed up, or are there actually other cadets arriving on the 4th?

Edit: On the bus. Maybe irrational thoughts ARE irrational

In my TI it says wear C3C which is my dress uniform, so do I travel in dress uni or my FTU, and what do I wear at the camp itself?

Did anyone go to church on Sundays while at HMCS Quadra? How was it? Which church did they take you to, and how far away was it? What about transportation? Does anyone know about the church services at Quadra? I have no idea how it works, so if you know, please DM me.

Also, do you have to fill out a Time Off Authorization form just to go to church? Who should I let know if I want to attend a church service? How long is the church service?

I'm leaving for ITDC tomorrow and I have been told by a few people that I bring my tunique and others that I still don't despite my course so I just wanna make sure if I do or don't bring it?

Do you pack everything in a back pack or can additional duffle bags or suitcases be used for packing for CTC? Trying to get all the clothes to fit and items into one back pack.

I know about the rule against food at a ctc but chewing gum helps me focus and I was wondering if I could bring some to blackdown? Or buy any from the canteen?

my mom is INSISTING that DND will provide sheets, a pillow, ect. Is this the case? I haven't seen that happen before at other smaller camps I've gone too. (I've never gone to a CTC before).

guys! im leaving tomorrow and i have no idea what common forms i need! i have my joining instructions form and my medication form, i have no plans to leave so i don’t think i need a form for that but am i forgetting anything else?? and also the bank forms, can i not just tell them my interac or something what kind of info do they need on that?

Any other pipers going this summer and aiming to test for level 5s?

Ok i need help with camp, first of all what are some items i should pack thats not on the list? (Something helpful like a swiffer or something) what are underrated things items and things you regret not bringing?

and how do i leave on sunday? Is there a form or could i just get picked up. How does it work when i wanna leave on sundays.

i’m kinda confused on how to fill out the forms. Direct Deposit one was easy and same with the personal property log (i’m only confused by the “location” part of the property log. does it want the ctc location or my corps location?)

i’m having trouble with “Common Form - Cadet Transportation”. My parents are not dropping me off to Blackdown CTC nor picking me up (so i’ll be using the bus they provide). I heard that I only have to fill out that form if i’m getting picked up after graduation so do i fill it?

i’m completely lost as to what the time off request is but from my understanding it’s for the Sunday we’re free (btw my parents also aren’t coming for this. does that mean i leave it blank?).

i don’t take any medication at all so im gonna assume i don’t complete nor hand in that form.

i also have to review the cadet code of conduct with a staff member so idk if i should sign it now or if we’ll do that at the bus before boarding? pls let me know.

any information would be really helpful. pls feel free to also tell me other useful items to bring to camp that isn’t on the list already.

Forgive me for being really slow in the head, i’m just so dizzy with excitement especially because i’m going with friends for the same course.

Anyone else got selected in the new Canada Strong Courses?

What are some things you should bring to a sea-related summer camp that aren't listed on the packing checklist? Also, what documents do you need to bring with you? Do you have to bring the packing checklist, and did they actually check your bags when you arrived?

Kind of self-explanatory. When it comes to labelling all your clothing and gear, what should be on the label? Name, rank, course? Phone number? Something like…?
