With the loss of the Cougars the focus of training has tilted towards the classroom but members still frequent the small arms ranges in south-east Kelowna and the Vernon Army Cadet Camp. In winter, there is regular training in outdoor survival skills and winter warfare.

During LCol. Williamson's second tour of duty as CO, the regiment managed to have eight cougars trucked to Fort Lewis, Washington. They added a much needed element of realism to the exercises held by the newly designated 39th Canadian Brigade Group (39CBG) as the old Militia district came to be called.
