        All Air Force JROTC cadets earn valuable skills while developing into better citizens.  Cadets never incur any military
        obligations. Cadets have opportunities (all voluntary) to: fly aboard Air Force aircraft, tour Air Force bases, compete with
        other JROTC schools in sports activities (dodgeball, volleyball), learn how to fly with simulators, RC aircraft and drones
        and build and launch rockets. They also have the opportunity to participate in summer cadet leadership camps, visit
        historical sites, attend socials (bonfires, holiday parties and caroling, pool party), support local veterans events, attend
        drill competitions (as shown in picture below) and participate in numerous community service opportunities and
        academic challenges.
