Hello! I am currently facing a dilemma on whether to attend Boy's State of NJROTC Leadership Academy.
I'll get straight to the point. I have the opportunity to attend Boy's State with a sponser and all of that or attending my area's NJROTC LA. I'm sure everyone here knows what Boy's State is so I'll explain LA. For those of you who aren't in NJROTC or don't know what LA is, it's essentially a 1 week bootcamp experience that works on developing your leadership skills, physical fitness, and discipline. Every NJROTC battalion sends 2+ of their best cadets to Leadership Academy so that they bring something back to contribute to the battalion. Each NJROTC "region" has their own Leadership Academy and a couple hundred are selected every year. The thing with mine is that Boy's State and NJROTC LA is on the exact same day. I am projected to enter a high leadership position in NJROTC next year and attending LA would solidfy that.
I know that Boy's State is seen highly by service academies. I am wondering if the Leadership Academy would be held the same. I am currently in a pickle. Any thoughts?
