The CAWG Encampment has been one of the premier cadet training activities across the country for decades. We are grateful for that heritage and are excited about continuing this standard of excellence in training for all who will participate this summer. We eagerly invite the cadets of California Wing to sign up soon and become part of the legacy and the future of The Cadet Training Group.
