Out of curiosity, when/where is the class crest unveiled?

I I recently took my parents (who have very limited mobility but don’t use wheelchairs) to visit my Mid on a “normal” Saturday. It was a great experience. A few notes: - I drove on with my DBIDS card, with them, in their car, with handicapped placard. No problem. - We did the GEM driving tour...

IO!

Whatever the colors mean, I'm glad they've got the wrist bands. It makes them much easier to find in pictures!

Thanks! I think I was posting my question as the other person was posting the answer. 🙂 I’ll check it out.

I’m aware of the alumni site, which posted (I believe) some 2,000 I-day photos, though none of my DS. (DH appeared in several at the parents fair but I don’t need to see pics of him, as I brought him home with me!) What is the other paid photo program?

Good point, and thanks! I’ll maybe change it USNA thankful mom!

My DS had a similar experience of scrambling, as his check-in time was 13:00. He barely had time to throw his stuff in his room and no chance to make his bed or put anything away before having to head back out. We had a blanket in a shady spot, and he seemed to appreciate the chance to sit down...

Thank you so much for your insight! I suspected that it might be best for my son to not be around until his official time. I like the idea of one parent going and one hanging/chilling with him. We’re staying close enough that we may be able to switch off, even, then have a little lunch and go to...

I’ve got another logistical question, which I’m hoping some experienced folks may be able to answer. Our son’s report time isn’t until 1 pm Wednesday, which won’t really give us time to drop him, park, shuttle back and have much time at the parent info fair. So, we’re planning to go over...

From what I’ve read, it sounds like we’ll also be driving up and dropping off this year and I’ve got a couple of questions: Was the line backed up? We’re trying to figure out how early we need to arrive to not be late, but also not too early! Also, was there good signage or people directing...

Thanks for the info, and LOL on the sundial. I’ll scratch that off the packing list.

I can't remember where, but I think I read that Apple watches were allowed after plebe summer, but not during. Is that the case? My DS has one but I didn't know whether he can take it on I-day or if we'd have to get him a more basic watch and then bring/send it in August. Thanks!

So sorry that you didn’t get the news you wanted. Thanks for sharing your optimum and energy with all on this forum. Your Plan A- sounds amazing! Best of luck at Miami!

Good luck to them both. Let’s goooo... Mountaineers!

When someone is in the list next, will you update #134 to accepted, please? TIA.

Thank you for this information! I was wondering what BGOs know and when. My DS just recently received his appointment - MOC call on Friday and email yesterday - but hadn’t heard anything from his BGO. He’s going to send a thank-you note to the BGO but wasn’t certain whether he’d be breaking the...

My DS got the MOC call while he was at school and in accordance with class rules (but against my advice), he didn’t have his phone on him. The MOC himself left a voicemail and then called and got my husband, who called me, who called the school to pull DS out of class to return the call. I would...

I'm not the update Fairy, but I went ahead and added the two Wisconsinites (Wisconsiners? Cheeseheads?) mentioned in the post above while adding my DS. No. SAF Username Self DD/DS LOA? Offer Date Accepted/ Declined? State/ District Nomination Type(s) Appt. Type 1 @Orval...
