Royal Canadian Air Force Centennial

Celebrate the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) Centennial in BWG!

April 1, 2024, marked 100 years of service for the Royal Canadian Air Force as a distinct military element. The RCAF Centennial is an opportunity to showcase Air Force personnel and their accomplishments, demonstrate air and space power, enhance the reputation of the RCAF, and proudly honour its distinguished history and heritage.

The Town of BWG and the BWG Public Library are proud to present a local week-long RCAF Centennial celebration from June 10-14, 2024, featuring a flight simulator, films, a panel discussion, a community parade, and more!

"The Royal Canadian Air Force was born 100 years ago to protect and preserve the freedoms of all Canadians, to contribute to global peace and to help those in need in Canada and abroad.”
