First Time Visitors
First Time Visit
So, you've found our squadron, looked through our website, and are wanting to come to one of our meetings. Awesome! We're excited for you to come. The following is a brief overview of what you are likely to experience during your first visit. We understand that it can be exciting yet overwhelming; but, the biggest thing to keep in mind is to ask questions. Because we are a Composite Squadron, you will find that we have both Cadet (youth) and Senior Member (adult) components. Whether you wish to join as a Cadet or as a Senior Member, this is what you can expect to observe:
-
Members arrive and socialize.
-
At 1900 (7:00 PM), cadets will be called into opening formation on the drill pad.
-
Cadets will return into the meeting room.
-
Squadron Commander will address the squadron at large.
-
Joint activities and announcements will be held.
-
Cadets and Senior Members will separate and host their respective activities.
-
Prospective members will be assigned a time to meet with the squadron's administrative officer to discuss requirements and details for joining.
If you are interested in joining, please Contact Us so we can best prepare for your visit.
