The JROTC Eagle Battalion has been busy planning the second semester. With events happening back to back they are excited to see what they have planned, and what is going to happen. The battalion has a bright future ahead as well as each cadet striving to be the best that they can be.

Let’s start with past events like the Roasavent drill meet the Armed, UnArmed, and PT teams precipitated in these competitions. Each team did an amazing job truly showing the effort of cadets, coaches, and instructors. The JROTC also competed in a raider competition the team participated in four events doing very well. Before I move onto the future events I have one last event to cover, the JROTC BBQ plate sale. This event was truly made possible by the JROTC Booster club who does so much for the program.

We interviewed cadets Layla Guerrero and she had many positive things to say about the JROTC. She says “My favorite thing about JROTC is the people”. She later stated that she joined because of the different activities that JROTC does. She is the rank of staff Sergeant participating on the Armed drill team.

Now to future events, the first we have the Military ball, being planned by Captain Kylie Breier and alongside her helping in the military ball committee meeting once a month to make this military ball the very best. The event following  is the 5th Brigade drill meet. The Armed and UnArmed compete at this for their chance to make it to Florida for drill team nationals. We wish the JROTC the very best of luck in everything that they do, and if you get the chance make sure you come out to support them in their events.
