On September 3, 2018, the Class of 2022 competed in the annual First Year Regatta. The race requires First Year officer cadets to hop into canoes and race around buoys half-way across Navy Bay.

RMC officer cadets slide down a water obstacle — A slippery slope

Fourth Year RMC Officer Cadets relax by sliding down one of the water obstacles after a “dry run” test of the First Year obstacle course on Aug 29, 2018. The RMC Training Wing staff and Fourth Year officer cadets did a “Dry Run” of the obstacle course to test the working order of the obstacles. The purpose of this is to ensure the safety and proper working order of each obstacle. This event also acts as a group-building exercise for new and old Training Wing Staff and serves as a last “hoorah” for the Fourth Years who will be graduating at the end of the academic year. The actual Obstacle Course by first year officer cadets will take place on Sept 14, as part of RMC Reunion Weekend. about the honorary degree recipients

RMC officer cadet climbs over the Wall — Overcoming adversity

On September 1, 2018, RMC First Year officer cadets participated in the Warrior Race: a competition that is designed to build teamwork and cohesion. Here they face, The Wall. The Wall is a challenging obstacle and the hallmark of the RMC obstacle course. This obstacle is the ultimate test of the flight’s ability to work as a team and to help each other to accomplish a difficult task. They must work to get their entire team over the twelve foot wall as quickly as possible and in a manner of utmost safety. It is necessary to have a solid plan, coordination, and teamwork to achieve victory over the Wall.

Colonel Stanley proposed that within the centre of the flag should be a single red maple leaf instead of the college emblem, which was a mailed fist holding a sprig of green maples leaves.
