OKWG/TXWG Winter Encampment, Senior Help

FOR WIDEST DISTRIBUTION TO SENIOR MEMBERS

Good Morning all,

Texas Wing has approached us with the opportunity of doing a joint Winter Encampment. One thing we are taking into consideration is participation in a winter encampment and it NOT taking away from the participation in our OKWG Summer Encampment. Oklahoma’s Encampment is our priority. Col Castle and I need to know if we would have enough people who can help with the winter encampment (held during Christmas break – typically starting Dec 26 or 27) without backing out of the summer encampment. Last summer I was a bit short in senior staff and needed more help.

If you have always wanted to help out at an Encampment but aren’t able to get time off work in June, but are able to in December – please let me know ASAP with a reply to this email.

Thank you for your dedication to our cadets!!

Nancy

Squadron Email

All,

We now have squadron email accounts, @ok113.org.

I have started setting email accounts up for each duty position, if you have a duty position you are entitled to an email address. If you would like an address that is different from your duty position name, let me know and I can give you whatever you want. You will be allowed to make use of your email as long as you hold a duty position. Keep an eye on your inbox, I will be sending out set-up instructions as I enable the emails.

Example:

Duty Position: DCC

Default email: DCC(at)ok113.org

Again, if you would like something different, perhaps your name @ok113.org, just let me know and I would be happy to set it up for you.

Once we have them all set, I would prefer that you use your squadron email for CAP business, it gives a more professional image.

Also, we now have the ability to set-up list-servers. Currently, I have set-up seniors(at)ok113.org and cadets(at)ok113.org, if you want to email everyone without going and copying them all into your email, simply use the list-serv. If you have any suggestions for list-servs to set-up, I can do that, just let me know.

Thanks,

Jordan Edmund, 1st Lt

Cadet Announcements

Cadets:

Tonight we have very special guests so make sure your Blues uniform is especially neat.

Tonight's activities will be Review boards and D&C, with Promotions following the end of the night. We will have a special video showing of the Air Force Academy trip. There will also be some presentations made.

Unfortunately I will not be able to attend so I expect you all to be on your best behavior without me. I know you'll make me proud.

Keep your nose up and have a good night.
