The Cadet Program is open to young men and women ages 12-18. It advances CAP’s four core values: Integrity, Excellence, Respect, and Volunteer Service. What’s more, cadets learn teamwork, leadership, and many “soft skills:” written and verbal communication, time and resource management, discipline, and planning. These skills are developed through a host of activities, seminars, and schools. Examples include summer encampments, drill and ceremonies, the Non-Commissioned Officer Academy (NCOA), and Regional Cadet Leadership School (RCLS). Cadets can also train to be members of the Color Guard and Honor Guard. We regularly participate in local community events such as Memorial Day, Veterans Day, Loyalty Day, and Wreaths Across America (WAA).
