Unit Weekly News for 26 Feb - 3 Mar

Greetings Parents and Guardians,

Congratulations to our Academics, Aeronautics and Marksmanship teams for their Overall 3d place finish at this weekend’s Wando Warrior Challenge!  Shout outs to Drone Team for their 1st place in the Obstacle Course and 3d place in the Slalom event, to Cadet Durant for his 1st place Rocketry Spot Landing (closest to the target), and to Cadet Haefner for winning Top Shot Novice Prone and Top Shot Novice Overall.  Well done all – is was a team accomplishment to win 3d overall!

We are rapidly approaching our Military Ball on Saturday, March 9th.  The ball is 1900-2200 (7pm – 10pm) at the Clubhouse at King’s Grant (222 Farmington Dr, Summerville, SC).  The theme is Masquerade ball and all cadets have been briefed on uniform, masquerade mask, and details about the ball.  Tickets are on sale now ($30 per attendee) and are running out (limited quantity), so cadets need to bring cash or check (made out to ARHS AFJROTC Boosters) to MSgt Powell to secure tickets as soon as possible in order to attend.

CLC for ARHS will be during week 1 only this year – our dates are 9-15 June for Cadre and 10-15 for Basics.  CLC conditioning will start in March and is open to all interested cadets.  Selection for CLC attendance will be finalized at the end of March – all basics who qualify should be able to attend.  I will send out an email to parents with more details (i.e. cost forecasts, basic cadet performance standards, etc) this week.
