The prep work takes weeks.
The days are exhausting.
Endless questions.
Rain. Heat. Humidity.
Messed up lunch orders.
Playing kids games wayyy beyond your prime.
Wondering why you’re ready for bed at 7pm each night.
And we wouldn’t trade it for anything. We were each reminded in some small way why we do what we do. For me, it was a heartfelt speech from a cadet that had me smiling and tearing up all the way home.
Thank you parents for trusting us with your kids this week. And thank you cadets for every exhausting but satisfying moment. See you next year!!
