Senior Member Executive and Direct Report Application closes 18FEB26
The remainder of the adult staff can apply at the link below. This summer we’ll be trying something new. Have you ever thought about staffing a cadet activity but weren’t sure if it is right for you? If so, you can apply as an assistant mentor. The assistant will be a no pressure position where you’ll work directly with another senior member as you learn about staffing Texas Wing encampments. No specialty track enrollment or rating is required, just current CPPT is all it takes! It is impossible to host a great encampment without great senior members, so come see for yourself how rewarding it is to work with these young future leaders of America! This link is for all remaining positions, both primary and assistants.
