General Membership Meeting
& Box Packing
October 16th
12:00 PM to 3:00 PM
at
Braden River High School
Media Center (Library)
6545 53rd Avenue East, Bradenton, FL 34203

General Directions (check them out on map quest to be certain): 
From I-75 heading south take exit 217, and head West off of the exit onto
SR 70 (also called 53rd Avenue East) for approximately 1 mile.
The entrance to Braden River High School is immediately after the
Synovus Bank on the right hand side of the road (you should see the
Braden River High School sign). Once on campus, take the first left and
travel west passing the football stadium on the right. Park in the faculty
parking lot just beyond the treesand proceed to the Media Center.

The October meeting will be our first box packing
event of the season. This will also be the first meeting after
the start of the academic year. We would like to
see everyone attend if possible as we are planning for
the majority of the meeting to be spent socializing
and talking about our cadets.
Box Packing: Four times a year our club sends our cadets
a care package which includes treats packed after our general membership meeting.
We ask our members to bring enough snacks/treats for 40 cadets or send
$15 to our treasurer to assist the club in filling the boxes. Parents are also
encouraged to include personal notes, cards or gifts in
their cadet's box if so desired. If you have any questions,
please feel free to contact one of the board
members with your questions.
