MEET THE PARENTS

FALL PARENTS’ WEEKEND
By Cadet Ray Jin


  Wentworth Military Academy & College hosted the Fall Parents’ Weekend in October.  Parents were invited to meet with faculty and staff to discuss the progress of their cadet.  They were also invited to eat dinner in the dining hall.  Ameriserve had a delicious meal for them.
 On Friday night, parents had the option to ride a bus to the football game to a neighboring town to watch the Red Dragons take on the Santa Fe Chiefs.  It wasn’t a good outcome for the Dragons, but everyone had a good time cheering and the boys played hard.
 On Saturday, the soccer team took to the field against St. Charles Community College.  The Red Dragons lost 3-2 in a hard fought match.  The parents then took part in the much anticipated parent’s drill down, a competition to see how well the parents could perform drill and ceremony.  The Cadet/1SGTs took charge and drilled the parents until only one was left.  The winner was the parent of Cadet Brett Heckman.

Following the drill down, cadets could check out overnight with their parents and enjoy some time together.
