JROTC Scholarships
Each year, several members of our unit travel to Casa Grande to present a check to benefit the the Marine
JROTC program at Vista Grande high school. This donation is often used to assist in taking the
JROTC members on a trip to Camp Pendleton.
Each spring we also award a scholarship to an outstanding member of the senior class.
These Marine ROTC cadets come to our annual Birthday Ball in
November to take part in the official ceremonies. They also participate when we are in charge of special ceremonies, like Veterans Day and Memorial Day.
Young Marines Assistance
Young Marines is a national organization open to all youths ages 8
through 18 or completion of high school; whichever comes last.
Membership requirements are - youth must be in good standing in
school and no criminal history. We are fortunate to have a
local chapter close to our detachment and are proud of these youth.
