    Hi Res Artwork

    Thanks for the help on finding artwork. Didn't mean to open a can of worms! I'm not military but was initially confused by the term because it is in no way connected to what DD terms a cadet-led spirit mission. Sent using the Service Academy Forums® mobile app

    Hi Res Artwork

    I recall that there are several folks on this forum that are associated directly with the Academy and "in the know" on many things! I am on the Class of 2018 Spirit Mission committee and creating banners for Recognition. Wondering if there is a source where I may obtain high res artwork (.eps...

    Experimented with Marijuana after Appointment (What Will Happen?)

    Second Chances Poptart: I cannot speak to your specific situation, but possibly my DD's story can give you some food for thought. My DD had ACCEPTED an appointment last year as part of the Class of 2017. 30 days before I-Day, she rescinded her appointment. She had not done anything "wrong"...

    Shout Out!

    I Saw Those Guys... I'm not going anywhere. The journey has only begun.... I watched enough video and looked at enough pictures to know you guys knew what you were talking about. At the airport yesterday, we saw another family sharing a tearful goodbye with a long man. At first glance, I...

    Shout Out!

    I want to give props to this group for helping me get to this point. DD left on an airplane today at 2pm. The experience and wisdom you have offered is invaluable. I hope that I can earn my chops over the next four years and become a valuable contributor for those that aspire to serve this great...

    Experimented with Marijuana after Appointment (What Will Happen?)

    Your Poor Parents.... I can only imagine the disappointment your parents will feel. If they are anything like the parents of other cadets, they have made countless sacrifices for 12+ years taking you to this practice or the other, buying you new cleats, make sure you have every opportunity...

    Care Packages/Parents Weekend Delivery

    I so appreciate all the tips, tricks and suggestions. One other question... I've read posts that indicate that football tickets sell out quickly for Parents weekend. I tried to buy them online this week, but appears that they haven't gone on sale yet. Some ticket brokers are offering tickets, I...

    Utah hopeful

    DD missed a call from Senator Hatch's office on Friday afternoon while she was at softball practice. They did not leave a message. Hopefully tomorrow will hold more information. Keep praying!

    Thank you for the insights. I have been concerned about the “friction” that could be created for having IC status, but not being a legitimate athlete. Even more convinced than ever now that DD needs to figure out the softball thing. I’ve been following the IC v. non-IC thread for several weeks...

    Visiting April 11th Any Suggestions?????

    I highly recommend the Fairfield Inn - Air Force Academy which is off Baptist road. If I recall, just two exits north of the North Gate. Also, I will warn you.... the North Gate will not let visitors in until 8am, so there is no need to “be early” as you’ll find yourself sitting in the parking...

    AFA Women’s Softball Club Team

    I’m familiar with those numbers and they do not work. No answer, disconnected... if I recall. I call the Athletic Department and was pointed yet a different direction. We know that the manager role would give DD IC status... her first passion is softball, second is basketball. She doesn’t have...

    Bad Phone Numbers I’ve tried all the phone numbers published on the club/IM page and none of them worked. The Athletic Department gave me a different number for which no one answered nor called me back. All assistance will be greatly appreciated.

    AFA Women’s Softball Club Team

    Insiders... I’m hoping you can help me track down some information. I’ve been trying for months, but keep reaching dead ends. Who is the women’s club softball coach and how does one go about getting involved with the team, tryouts, etc. It seems that since it is not officially IC, nor IM...
