22 Wing AYR Mess

Steeped in a rich military heritage and tradition, messes have been used by the Canadian Forces (CF) throughout Canada's history to foster morale and promote military values including camaraderie and unit cohesiveness. Messes give members a strong sense of commitment to the ideas, objectives and the basic responsibility expected of them within the CF and set the standard for military service within Canada.

To this day, CF messes retain a functional role as social and dining clubs, and are the centre of social life for units, stations bases and ships. They enhance the esprit de corps of units, lighten the load of demanding day-to-day work, give commanders an opportunity to meet socially with their troops, and enable CF members of all ranks to create bonds of friendship and better working relations through an atmosphere of good fellowship.
