**Special Projects**

We also have some special projects that need to be headed up before
encampment. We are looking for TACs that are willing to take on adjunct
duties or special projects for us. The cadets have been running these
projects successfully the past few years but not as well as they could
due to the huge amount of work they have to do making this activity
successful. These projects include:

1\. Banquet facilitation (helping securing POW table items, program
development, order of events, etc.) **Capt Jennifer Nisewender**

2\. ES Activity (design the 1-2 hour mini intro to ES for cadets) **1Lt
Nathaniel Beer**

3\. Color Guard (oversee the development of the color guard and securing
all wing items needed) **Assigned to Lt. Col. Marc Peterson**

4\. Awards (help plan, order, and pick up awards for cadet staff and SM
staff)

5\. T-shirts (place the t-shirt order, pick up t-shirts, we have used
Hunkey Dorey by Buckley in the past if someone is interested in helping
with this item)

Thank you to all who volunteer for your support of the cadets!
