Dear Rhode Island Wing Members and Families, I want to share an important update regarding encampment opportunities for this year. Due to ongoing renovations at Naval Station Newport, Rhode Island Wing will not be hosting an encampment this summer. While this is disappointing, the good news is that several excellent encampments are available throughout the region and nation, and we strongly encourage our cadets to apply. A current list of approved Civil Air Patrol encampments can be found here: https://www.gocivilairpatrol.com/programs/cadets/activities/encampment If a significant number of Rhode Island Wing cadets plan to attend the same encampment, the wing will explore the possibility of arranging group transportation. More details will be shared as we better understand where cadets are applying. Encampment remains a cornerstone experience of the Cadet Program, and we are committed to helping our cadets access this opportunity even in a year when we are unable to host locally. Thank you for your flexibility and continued support of our cadets and volunteers. Please reach out through your unit chain of command if you have questions.
Carpe diem,
Col Stan Skrabut
