Saturdays are cadet days but several of our younger members have been coming out during the week this summer. I’m a little surprised that they don’t prefer the beach or other summer pursuits. These pictures show them in action. They do it all. They also do something that many of us might not be aware of. They are CAF Ambassadors. I have had several people comment to me how impressed they are with these youngsters. Many folks are amazed to see them driving forklifts or servicing aircraft. Our cadets fly the flag well. They make us better.
Ray and Shawn got a little 290 time yesterday. They both earned it!

Thanks to the following for coming out this week.
Mimiteh (Ray), Nicole, Shawn, Emma, Riley, Jimmy, Romeo, Chris, Isaiah, Zach and Chance.
