NO PAUSE
For more than two decades, people and businesses from Camrose and area have enjoyed an extraordinary relationship with the Snowbirds. At a time when questions are being raised nationally about the Snowbirds' future, it's important that rural community voices remain part of the conversation. For decades, Camrose families, youth, seniors, aviation enthusiasts, veterans and visitors have met pilots, technicians and support personnel, building personal connections with the people behind one of Canada's most recognizable national icons. These experiences inspire future generations and foster pride in the Royal Canadian Air Force. Collectively, we need to ensure that we send federal leaders a clear message: the Snowbirds' value extends beyond their flying demonstrations, resting equally in the relationships they build, the accessibility to aviation and inspiration that they provide to future aviators. Snowbirds' fans from Camrose and area are invited to join the NO PAUSE Postcard Campaign. Send a postcard to Prime Minister Mark Carney encouraging the government to keep the Snowbirds flying and inspiring future generations. Postcards are available at the Camrose Booster office on 48 Street.
