Group 22 Winter Message

Here we are in the middle of the cold dark winter. Although thoughts of flying and ES training may be far from your mind, there are still plenty of opportunities around. We should remember that training continues throughout the year. Ice Bowl is just around the corner and other training opportunities are closer than you might think. The Air Force Evaluated exercise is coming up in August. Keep an eye on the Group 22 calendar for more details. We would like a good showing from Group 22. With that in mind, now is the time to hone your ES skills. Whether it's working on new skills or fine tuning old ones, let's lean forward and participate in as many training activities as we can before the evaluated mission.
In addition to the Air Force Evaluated Mission, IL Wing staffers as well as Group 22 staffers are meeting with Emergency Response Agencies throughout the State. They are spreading the word about CAP capabilities and assets. This could potentially bring more actual mission work to us. If you would like to participate in these potential missions, it's up to you to be the best you can be. This means being at the top of your game. It also means presenting a professional appearance and having a professional attitude. We are fortunate in Illinois and Group 22 in that we have in our ranks, members who possess these attributes. That being said let's continue to improve and continue to set the standard for the Wing, Region, and Nation.
Group 22 Staff looks forward to seeing you at upcoming training.
