Welcome to 2013 Ohio Wing Encampment. Civil Air Patrol encampments are a truly unique opportunity for young adults between the ages of 12-21 to expand their leadership skills and gain an early understanding of the military lifestyle. Over the course of a week, new cadets are introduced to a variety of mental and physical challenges designed to build and enforce the Civil Air Patrol Core Values: Integrity, Volunteer Service, Excellence, and Respect. Successful completion of an encampment is required for the Billy Mitchell Award and opens up many new and exciting opportunities for CAP cadets, including numerous college and flight scholarships, National Cadet Special Activities, and the ability to return to encampment as cadet staff.
