Nervous about joining JROTC? Don’t worry — we’ve got you covered. Mini Camp is the perfect way to learn the basics, make friends, and start your journey the right way.
Mini Camp is a 2-day training session designed especially for new cadets. It usually takes place at school or a nearby location and is run by experienced upperclassmen and instructors.
What We Do:
🎖️ Uniform & Drill Training: Learn how to wear your uniform and march properly

💪 Physical Training (PT): Basic workouts to get you moving
🫂 Team Building Activities: Make friends and learn to communicate


Cadet Mentorship: Older cadets guide you through your first steps

🔗 Leadership Prep: Get introduced to rank structure and expectations
Why Mini Camp Matters:
Helps you feel confident and ready
Teaches respect and discipline
Prepares you for what’s coming next (like JCLC Summer Camp!)
Shows you that you’re not alone — you’re part of a team
