Would you like to honor and serve America? Do you want to prepare for your future while making new friends? Then rise to the challenge of cadet membership in the U.S. Air Force Auxiliary, Civil Air Patrol's Sedalia Cadet Squadron.

Cadets fly, learn to lead, hike, camp, get in shape, and push themselves to new limits. If you're dreaming about a career in aviation, space, or the military, CAP's Cadet Program is for you.

To become a cadet, you must be be at least 12 years old and not yet 19 years old. Cadets meet 2 hours per week and one Saturday per month, on average, and also have opportunities to attend leadership encampments, career academies, and other activities during the summer.

Best of all, thanks to the generosity of the Pettis County United Way, Cadets (Teens) activities and supplies are free.

Sedalia's Meetings are every Thursday between 6:30-9:00 pm on the east side of town at 3315 E. Broadway Blvd (HWY 50).
