Dear Cadets,

The final deadline for submissions to the SPIRIT of Victory contest is just a week away! For anyone still working on your speech, you have until Wednesday, May 6 to polish it up and send it in. You’ll find instructions on how to submit your entry and other contest details at www.historyandheroes.ca/spirit-of-victory.

This contest gives everyone the opportunity to learn more about the 75th anniversary of the end of the Second World War in Europe, and to think about what this key milestone in our history means to us today. We’re partnering with the History and Heroes Foundation to offer a first prize of $1,000, a second prize of $500 and a third prize of $250.

Thank you to everyone who has already entered. To all Alberta cadets, keep up the great work as you continue to learn from home!

Sincerely,
Lois E. Mitchell, CM, AOE, LLD
Lieutenant Governor of Alberta
