With gratitude for the contributions received, we're reaching out to our fantastic 351 community. The response rate for the OPC Assessment Contributions remains low, based on the completion of OPC Assessment Contribution Form responses received by the Squadron Sponsoring Committee (SSC). Thank you again for the contributions made by parents and strongly encourage those who haven't contributed to consider supporting the Squadron. Payment instructions are outlined in the OPC Assessment Contribution Letter to Parents, which was sent earlier to all cadets in October. A copy of the Letter can be assessed through the link below:
