[Mankato] Meeting May 13

Sun May 9 22:55:21 CDT 2021

Commander's Remarks: 
Greetings Seniors, Cadets, and Parents,
This week's meeting will be held at the Terminal Building to give us more room for the meeting. Parents please plan to attend our meetings to  help us support our cadet programs. 
Seniors, Now that spring is here and COVID is on the decline we need to start planning for the summer and rest of the year. Please plan on attending the coming meeting so we can all pull together to make our squadron the best it has ever been. We will be reviewing duty assignments for the open positions and planning for the coming year.  
Cadets, This week we will be doing Cyber-Patriot training. Our squadron needs to field a Cyber-Patriot team for this coming year and we are looking for new cadets to join our team. This is an opportunity to have fun and learn about how cyber security actually works. 
Due to COVID-19 we ask that all members take their temperature at home or by a no-touch thermometer before entering the meeting place. Facial coverings are required indoors, even if social distancing can be maintained. When outdoors, social distancing should be sufficient.

2021 MN Wing Encampment Dates - 
Due to the nature of this year, registration will be done differently. June 1st, 2021 will be the go/no-go date, which means that if Minnesota Wing is not in Phase 3 or in plan to be in Phase 3 before June 26th, 2021 encampment will be cancelled. The decision of encampment will be announced the week of June 1st. Please see the difference in registration:
For those interested in attending encampment https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSe88j88424Z3Ti-iv3k51OBhdFHiGe_ybGHf-vTsQrnAZ8OlA/viewform <https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSe88j88424Z3Ti-iv3k51OBhdFHiGe_ybGHf-vTsQrnAZ8OlA/viewform> (MN Wing Encampment Pre-registration form) 
All pre-registrants will be placed on the waitlist, and will be notified by email
On June 1st, if encampment is able to happen, those with a reserved spot will receive an email to complete the MNCAP application, submit payment, and send in the proper forms (CAPF-163, CAPF-162, and Permission Form).
Once the application window is open to those on the waitlist, it will not remain open for long. It is important that all who want to attend read all emails pertaining to encampment and turn in all parts of the registration quickly. All cadets who plan to attend Encampment will be required to produce a completed form CAPF 162, documenting proof of a physical completed within the past 12 months. No exceptions will be granted. Any cadet who has not received a physical in the past 12 months is encouraged to do so, to ensure completion before Encampment

Mankato Squadron Tan T-Shirt - If interested, we have tan t-shirts with the squadron logo on them that can be worn under the ABU’s.  If you are interested they are $12.00 each.  Please see 2nd Lt. Mader if you are interested.
