Participants will be grouped within their Commands, ECS' or Level 1s to encourage esprit de corps.

Please indicate your tentative participation to your EA or designated L1s representative, via your chain of command, by 26 May 08.

If you are a person with a disability, please self-identify to the EA and a volunteer will be assigned to assist you.

 
It was very impressive, I must say.  With a good portion of the group turning at Bank to go back up the Queen Elizabeth Drive side of the canal, you could see red shirts lining both sides for a while!

For the record - Gen Hillier promised to cheer for the Sens next year!!!!
