SQUADRON HISTORY:
759 Falcon in North Burnaby was formed on December 23, 1965.
759 Knights of Columbus Royal Canadian Air Cadet Squadron (RCACS) first received its charter in December 1965 after declaring independence from 637 North Burnaby RCACS. Since then, the squadron changed its name to Eagles and later, Falcon.
For the past decade, 759 Falcon has been involved with the North Burnaby community. 759 works with the Royal Canadian Legion Branch #148 for poppy tagging, volunteering at Burnaby community events, aiding in park clean-ups, and participating in the annual Burnaby Heights Hats Off Day.
The squadron had previously paraded at Burnaby Heights Community Centre and Burnaby North Secondary School and is now located at Seaforth Elementary School. Many of our activities continue to operate out of the Civil Defense Hut Building in Confederation Park, thanks to the ongoing support of Burnaby’s Parks and Recreation Department.
