The JROTC spent a week in Calumet at camp, and learned many different skills in leadership. They did team building, one rope bridge, land navigation, reaction training (how to go through different obstacles to save an injured person), drill pad, ropes course both high and low, kayaking, mountain biking, robotics, drones, repelling, and many other activities. They ended the week with a big kickball tournament between all 7 schools. Looks like hard work, but a lot of fun!
