ADVENTURE TRAINING

Our cadets get to participate in many activities that normal students don't get to do. They go rappelling, camping, flying, drown-proofing, and one and two rope bridges. All of these activities are voluntary but few cadets refuse and many go on to join our Venture Crew which gives them even more opportunities to partake in adventure training.

Our Cadets went drown proofing on December the 15th and 17th. The cadets learned how to make flotation devices out of BDUs and did abandon ship drills. Several cadets also learned how to swim and even Colonel took a swim. Afterwords the cadets had a few minutes of free time and the freshmen had a chance to play a game of retrieve the brick.
DROWN-PROOFING



Cadets learn important life-saving skills about water survival. They learn how to make expedient flotation devices out of clothing, water entry techniques, as well as taking a swimming profiency test.

FIRST FLIGHT
Our cadets receive the opportunity to fly for the very first time in a Cessna-172, as part of Sullivan South High School's JROTC First Flight program at the Tri-Cities airport. Three cadets at a time fly with Air Force LtCol. Powley and one cadet out of the group will actually get to co-pilot the plane.
