Thanks to all parents and chaperones who helped us celebrate 10 years of IL-20171 at MHS. We could not have pulled off m the Military Ball without you.

Good Morning Parents, Guardians and Friends of AFJROTC,

The Cadets have been invited to participate in Wreaths Across America again this year at the Mound City National Cemetery. This event will take place on Saturday, December 13 at 11am. Everyone is welcome to participate, however, only Cadets and Chaperones are allowed on the bus. Cadets can drive down themselves if they want to, but the issue is other Cadets riding with them without parent/guardian approval. I am encouraging Cadets to talk with you and getting approval before jumping in the car with anyone else.

Please encourage your Cadet to sign up if they haven’t already. The expected high for this event is cold. Please encourage your Cadet to layer up and dress appropriately for the weather to include hats and gloves.

0915 - Meet in Classroom
0930 - Depart MHS
1030ish - Arrive at Cemetery
1100 - Program Start
1pm(ish) - Return to Marion High School - Will have Cadets call/text you when we depart

Also, a huge shoutout to Cadet Chaperones Mrs. Pettigrew, Helen Ellis and the Cadets who braved the cold to for the annual Veterans Day, Texas Roadhouse Food Voucher Giveaway The Cadets had a great time and really enjoyed interacting with the Veterans for this worthwhile event. No pics for this one!

What a way to start the morning, Cadets were asked to present the colors at the annual, Weathering The Storm Conference. They did an outstanding job and were coined by the Director of the event who was previously an Air Force Junior ROTC Cadet in high school hailing from Del Rio, Texas.
