Shadowing and Orientation Events
Informational Sessions for Interested Individuals
The Wisconsin Army Cadets invite you to attend one of two special opportunities to explore our program by shadowing during a training day.
Each session begins with a one-hour overview for youth and their parent/guardian. Parents depart after the overview at 2pm, while youth may choose to stay for the full afternoon to experience the training, meet the Cadets, ask questions, and enjoy and meal. We will conclude by 6:00 pm.
