Middle School Recruitment Trip
|
On 2/28/24, The AFJROTC Recruitment Team went to the Middle School to recruit 8th graders to join the AFJROTC program in the 2024/25 school year. Our recruiting team had the 8th graders do a few activities such as paper airplane making, icebreakers, and then we had them test how far the paper airplanes could fly. C/Bender showed off a couple rifle tricks to promote our drill team. C/SSgt Canty stated- “We got to see some of our current cadets family members and got to recruit a lot of fun new faces. I'm just glad we got to see the Middle School and all of its redecorations. The presentation was done well and we did amazing and I'm happy that we got to meet all of the new people.” Overall, the 8th graders seemed to heavily enjoy the presentation and now have a better understanding on what AFJROTC is about.
