There will be a Leadership lesson taught and developed by Capt. Sara Fishbein. Capt. Fishbein is an experienced leader, currently serving in the United States Air Force as a pilot. Her extensive knowledge and practical experience have been distilled into a comprehensive leadership activity that is designed to help individuals become effective and successful leaders.

We have an exciting Aerospace activity coming up! Building balsa wood gliders is a fun and educational way to learn about aerodynamics and flight. Lt. Kristy Stanley is a pilot and the MSWG AEO (aerospace officer), she is passionate about designing and building just about anything. Her love for CAP is also inspiring, and it's wonderful to have such dedicated individuals involved in the program. This project will be a fabulous addition to the retreat.
- Competition is the name of this game! It will be interesting to see what kinds of designs and modifications the participants come up with to make their gliders fly farther or faster.

Lt. Doug Wigington has designed an Emergency Services activity that promises to be both enjoyable and educational. Lt. Wigington has been a firefighter for 31 years and an EMT for 27 years.

On Sunday, a special ceremony will be held to mark the beginning of the new cadet advisory council term. During the ceremony, outgoing council members will pass on their responsibilities and knowledge to the newly elected members.
This is an important moment for the cadet program, as it allows for fresh perspectives and ideas to be introduced into the council. The new members will have the opportunity to build upon the successes of their predecessors, while also identifying areas for improvement. The ceremony will be a celebration of leadership and service, and will serve as a reminder of the importance of dedication and commitment to the cadet program.
