We have fun! We learn! We grow! We do so many things such as  flying, gliding, target shooting, survival training, camps, sports, biathlons, rifle drill, drill, band, academic studies, competitions and lots of other things. Our squadron also does fun activities outside of cadets training like bowling and Get-Air, go-carting, laser tag and so much more!

It’s where I learned self-discipline, leadership, and how to fly.”
