Is this program right for you?
We are a nonprofit organization federally charted, not a recruitment tool for the military but to mold our youth into better members of the community.
The program is not as linear as traditional JROTC programs as it provides cadets the opportunity to attend trainings such as flight school, sailing, photo journalism, culinary school to name a few.
If you are still interested please continue reading.
The previously stated advanced training become available to cadets once they have completed their bootcamp.
If Cadet want to join the military they will enter at a higher paygrade or if they want to join a service Academy it helps with getting accepted.
If Cadet does not have an interest in the military it makes them more competitive than their peers because they will have more training, experience, and self-discipline than other applicants.
