Making your Travel Plans

It is the responsibility of cadets' parents/guardians to arrange for transport to and from training.
Making these plans ahead of time allows for stress-free cadets and parents. Becoming familiar with and sharing the plan with the travelling cadet/s will help ensure a smooth, successful mission.
- Please use your local chain of command for help and information regarding the entire training process, including travel plans.
