During the month of October, the 88 Airdrie Lynx Royal Canadian Air Cadet Squadron coordinated a food drive on the 6th and a bottle drive on the 20th.

 Both drives were extremely successful. The food drive, in partnership with the Airdrie Food Bank, raised 3,893 pounds of food and $2,390 in cash and gift cards for a grand total of $12,511.80 for the food bank to help the community.

The bottle drive was a similar success.

The Squadron would like to express there thanks for everyone who generously donated bottles, cash and good to the drives.
