On Friday, 14 October, CAF members at Borden gathered bright and early for a fun day of physical activity with the annual CAF Sports Day.
Personnel Support Programs (PSP) organized competitions for ball hockey, bowling, dodgeball, golf, Spikeball, and volleyball. Non-competitive activities included mountain biking, rock climbing, and sparring.

It is all together as one. So the wellness of yourself, of your subordinates, and of your family, is critically important as we move forward and deal with the challenges that this organization has, and the challenges that the nation expects us to face on their behalf.”
Congratulations to the 2022 winners! PSP extended a big thank you to our event sponsor Things Engraved for generously donating all prizes and plaques to this year’s winners, and to our sponsor Biosteel for keeping our participants hydrated.
