Royal Canadian Air Cadet Squadron

About 514 Kinsmen RCACS

We are a non-profit youth organization funded by the Department of National Defence and by our community sponsor, the Kinsmen Club of St. John’s. For over 75 years we have served the youth in our community by offering free, accessible training in such important areas as leadership, music, public speaking, marksmanship, physical activity and, of course, aviation.

Regular Training is conducted at CFS St. John's (115 The Boulevard) on Mondays from 1830-2115 hours (6:30pm-9:15pm), unless otherwise stated for specific dates below.

Registration is free and always open!
