Yes, you will have a couple of hours to visitat the end of BCT, on A Day, can my family come for the parade and to visit for the day?
Be careful about bringing LOTS of food. In Summer '18 there were LOTS of garbage cans in the parking lot filling up with uneaten food. We and many others, planned on feeding many new cadets and upperclassmen and they just weren't there. Perhaps Mitch's was open in '18 but not other years? If you have extra, you can take it up to the dorms to give to upperclassmen but you'll probably have your kid's stuff to carry. Having been through it in '18, I would suggest having 2 or 3 extra sandwiches but not more than that.Yes, but if they live far away (and if like us, it was $$$ to travel), better to save the money and spend a long time at Parents Weekend. Essentially, they'll be there for lunch and maybe a half hour visiting, along with your new Cadet friends whose parents couldn't make it. Lesson: bring LOTS of food, for LOTS of hungry cadets. And while Chick-fil-A is great, best to order and pick up VERY early.
Can parent's actually enter the cadet area at AFA and enter barracks and their room?
