| LEARNING EXPERIENCE AT NORTH: The Trask Raider Team traveled to Pocahontas State Park, VA, and participated among some 47 teams at the Brigade sponsored "Raider North" competition. A strong showing in the first two events of the Modified Army Physical Fitness Test (push-ups and sit-ups) was frustrated when only four team members were able to complete the mile at the required time of 6:50. PT qualifiers for the Titans were Chris Woodcock, Richardo Mata, Jose Lopez and Robert McCaskill. Sole qualifier among the "contingency" personnel was freshman Jakita Lane. Work ahead for the "Storm from the South." |

| CONSTITUTION DAY CERMONIES. Some 500 K thru 2d graders at our Adopted School--Rocky Point (NC) Primary--can't be wrong; it was Great! Colors Presentation, National Anthem, a Patriotic slide show all culminating in a "rousing" rendition of "Proud to Be an American." Cadet effort was greeted with a sea of home-made Amercian Flags and the complete adoration of their audience. Good job! |

UNIT HIKE at CAROLINA BEACH STATE PARK; 12 Sep 09. Some forty-one Trask JROTC cadets participated in this year's hike. Weather was ideal and the recent dry spell meant that the bugs were not bad either. The large contingent pulled the three-plus mile route in just under an hour. Event culminated in very popular fashion at the Golden Corral.
