NERPA505 Update

Greetings, 505!  I hope everyone had as great a week end as Cadets Daniel Hagberg, Evan and Collin Matheny, and I had (at least on Saturday at the FTX)!

Congratulations to Cadets Adrianna Young and Brendon Loney on becoming the newest members of the squadron.  Welcome to 505!  The squadron has grown by three members this month.  Great!

(1) Tuesday is special testing night, since our testing officer was out of the country on a mission trip on regular testing night.  Every cadet is eligible to test for leadership, aerospace, of both.  Testing opportunities are to help each of you to honor the part of your cadet pledge to "advance my training and education rapidly," but it is up to you to take the time to prepare and make the effort to test.
(2) Re. C/2 Lt. Matheny, Tuesday is also ES training night.  We will plan to cover material that will complete Ground Team Member 3 SQTRs for some of our ground team trainees, and get SQTRs started for other cadets who are interested in becoming Ground Team members.
(3) Also re. C/2 Lt. Matheny, we will try to work in some PT, especially for cadets who need to test for advancement.
(4) I will try to post some photos of the FTX attended by four members of the squadron sometime tomorrow.  Check the squadron blog.  Also, use the squadron blog to help with recruiting by giving out the address: http://nerpa505.blogspot.com.
(4) IMPORTANT!  Check your contact information in your eServices account for accuracy.  Be sure everything is correct, including your email address.  This is the primary method that CAP NHQ uses to communicate with members.  If you do not have an email address, I will give you one to use, and I will print the information for you.

  Semper Vigilans!    Be proud of who you are and what you do in CAP!

See you Tuesday, and don't forget to bring a friend!
