Discussion thread for those attending CVW

<p>Yes, I'm a mom, but I'm hoping that this thread can be a "meeting" place for candidates who are planning to attend a CVW, particularly the one on 25-27 October, and possibly mids who are lurking. </p>

<p>Signing out....</p>

<p>I'm going to the October 25 CVW, so if anyone sees a short, curly haired extremely enthusiastic blonde girl it's me :) I'm excited! I went to Summer Seminar but it will be interesting to follow a plebe around.</p>

<p>I have been counting down the days until October 25 (15 and counting)! I can't wait. I also attended NASS, session 2 (C-3-4) and can't wait to return to the Academy. It will be a great experience to see what life is really like as a plebe. I'm a short red headed girl so hope to see you there. I am also going to the Navy v. Delaware football game on the 27th! Due to a change in plans we have one extra ticket for the game. If you're interested in getting it send me a personal message.</p>

<p>Go Navy!</p>

<p>I'm going to the November CVW but I'm extremely excited too!!! All you guys going to the October one have to let us know how it goes! and maybe helpful tips on what to bring, etc... :D</p>

<p>I'll be there in November for CVW.</p>

<p>I'll be at the October CVW. I can't wait!</p>

<p>Be there in November...</p>

<p>Hey, I'm going for October too. Tall skinny dark-haired guy. Got my LOA, just waiting on a nomination & DoDMERB, have my interview the week after CVW. I wasn't at SS like some of you so really hoping this willbe a real look at life, let me know one way or the other if USNA is the place for me.</p>

<p>Hey Wondrin, I'm waiting on the same stuff. Where are you from?</p>

<p>Are any of you October people flying into BWI? I'm taking the shuttle to USNA. If you PM me with times, maybe some of us could ride down together?</p>

<p>Hey, I'm from MN. Just got DoDMERB clearance today, most excellent! So, all I'm waiting on is my nomination.</p>

<p>did you also recieve an LOA?</p>

<p>Yes, he did. Refer to Post #8.</p>

<p>Hey guys...
I'm in for the 25-27 October. I'm flying from Austin to Baltimore on Cont'l 852/2566 with a 2-hr layover in Newark (land in Baltimore at 14.17). From there, I'll take the shuttle to Annapolis.</p>

<p>I'm hoping to stay for the game, but I've got a conflict. We'll see what happens. I'm going to stay the night with some friends and flying back to Austin at 8.05 Sunday AM.</p>

<p>email me and let's make some plans :)</p>

<p>I know that the invitation says to wear casual and comfortable clothing, except what should girls wear? Are jeans too casual? Nice t-shirts or blouses? Also, do plebes typically take swimming courses?</p>

<p>Informal = Coat and tie for men, cocktail dresses for women</p>

<p>Casual = Slacks and button down shirt for men, comparable attire for women</p>

<p>Slob = jeans and t-shirt</p>

<p>I'm going to the November CVW, and then going to the Navy vs. NIU game
Also went to NASS (session 2, A-3-4).
is there anyone else from wisconsin on this forum?</p>

<p>Are you Christina?</p>

<p>hey joe,
yeah, that's me! :)
seriously, if you find out about any other wi candidates, let me know.
i'm dying to know who else is out there.
i have my senatorial interviews next sunday so i'll find out then i guess.</p>

<p>lol good luck!... and it's probably a good thing that you haven't been able to find any other WI candidates :p</p>

<p>yeah, that's what i've been thinking.
i guess i'll have to wait and see at the interview how many people are there. and even there, some will be for usafa, usma, and usmma.</p>
