<p>If it's feasible to attend, I would say go for it. If not, well, it's certainly not the end of the world. I'm sure there are many successful cadets here who did not/could not attend Orientation.</p>
<p>Yippee. Okay, my mom and I are coming the second weekend, staying from the 20-23. I look forward to meeting you people!</p>
<p>Just wondering, for all the other 2012 appointees, which orientations are you going to?</p>
<p>I'm not sure yet since the schedule for regionals and state for tennis is around that time. I'm glad I have up to around a week before to decide.</p>
<p>Buckaroo and family will be attending 20-23 April.</p>
<p>I will be going to the first one April 14-15. I'm staying at the best western academy hotel how about everyone else?</p>
<p>I'm going to the last one, April 27-29</p>
<p>AZcadet, you play tennis? Are you playing at the Academy?</p>
<p>hey hornet. there may be 1 or 2 restaurants you missed. lol.</p>
<p>closer to the hotels is probably better too so that non-CC orientees who are sitting around a hotel alone and bored can join in on the fun</p>
<p>Haha! That's true. I think I brought a random entourage of 8 people with me to dinner from the Academy hotel. :) Good times.</p>
<p>Now I'm feeling old. I arranged the first cc dinner at ted's montana grill for the class of 2010 ccers(it could have been the second dinner that year). A very good time. I found the orientation to be very informative; however, if you cannot go. CCers who went were very good about posting critical info so I think you'll be fine. It is a great time no doubt.</p>
<p>still takin deep breaths from receiving my appointment today, i hope to know my logistics next week so i can respond asap...</p>
<p>and a dinner sounds great, itll give us some faces to recognize as 4 digs...</p>
<p>Haha, yeah, that's how I recognized hornet during 2nd Beast at the Chapel. It's always nice to put faces with names.</p>
<p>For some of y'all though, you could possibly end up in one of the (current) 3-dig's Basic Flights...</p>
<p>MWAHAHAHA! It's going to be different having that interaction with you guys. Should be fun!</p>
<p>oi! hornetguy's getting WAY too much enjoyment out of all this...</p>
<p>I'm gonna be just as bad if not worse. This is gonna be fun. ;)</p>
<p>Yeah your both gonna be tossing candy bars, and cheeseburgers at them, after you scare them to death by staring at them behind those dark sunglasses.</p>
<p>2012 won't ahve to worry about me, cause i'll be at AETC helping run elisted basic. but 2013... oh yeah</p>
<p>haha, you're probably right ds! I know I was tossing snickers into my current 4 digs rooms (and PETKO's!). But maybe not, depending on how job interviews go this year. :)</p>
<p>I am sure you will be on Group or Wing Staff...maybe you can take EOD's place on group staff....Stan/Eval wouldn't be bad would it.</p>
<p>I am actually looking at Supe. Don't have the personality for stan/eval. :) Will be funny too since new 4 digs think of Supe as scary considering the BCT supe is one of the people they have a lot of interaction with en masse.</p>
