Description

Come learn about the CAP Cadet Program, a year-round STEM-focused leadership activity where teen cadets get to actually fly small airplane! The CAP Cadet Program is a year-round STEM-focused activity where teenaged cadets get to actually fly small airplanes and gliders, and launch model rockets. They also fly quadcopters (aka "drones") and radio-controlled model airplanes, while also learning to lead, hike, camp, get in shape and push themselves physically and academically to higher limits!  All cadets have the opportunity to earn FULL flight scholarships to earn their Private Pilot's License for FREE! If you or your teenage children/grand-children are college or career bound and are dreaming about a career in aviation (on Earth on in Space), a career in the military, a civilian STEM career -- or if you want to mentor teens who do -- then the volunteer Civil Air Patrol is for you!   FAQs  Are there ID or minimum age requirements to enter the event? No minimum nor maximum age; however, childcare will not be provided.   What are my transportation/parking options for getting to and from the event? Free parking is available in the lot on the north end of the building (to the right when facing the entrance). Our building is also MBTA accessible on the #32 bus from Forest Hills MBTA Station, by taking an 8 minute walk down Mt Hope Street, from Hyde Park Avenue - then go left on American Legion Highway for one block.   How can I contact the organizer with any questions? You may contact Lt Colonel Carleton Jones by email at: [email protected].   Do I have to bring my printed ticket to the event? Absolutely not.  Ticket registration helps us provide the front desk with a list of expected attendees.
