Encampments

Encampments are one of the most popular and worthwhile activities available to cadets. They challenge cadets to develop self-discipline and teamwork while broadening their understanding of aerospace. Most encampments are conducted on a military installation.
This web page is designed to connect cadets with encampment opportunities in their home wing and across the nation. If your wing is not listed, contact your unit commander or director of cadet programs for more information. This site is updated as the wings and regions supply details about their encampments.
Directors of Cadet Programs: Please e-mail your encampment information so we may be include it on this web page. For regulatory guidance concerning encampments, see CAPR 52-16, Cadet Program Management.
Encampment Calendar - 2010 Encampments will be listed below as we receive information about them.
For application procedures, costs, and other information, visit the encampment's website or email the contact person. Staff members may be asked to report earlier than the dates shown here. All details are subject to change.
