<p>Hey you 1st session people!
You’ve had sufficient time to get back into the swing of things…what’d you think? Any particular observations/reflections now that you’ve shadowed a cadet (and met us )?</p>
<p>Advice for those in 2nd or 3rd session? Speak up now! :D</p>
<p>Hurry Sunday is coming fast!</p>
<p>Bring the money order in advance if you can… there’ll be long lines at the bank if you don’t.</p>
<p>Be prepared for Powerpoint…</p>
<p>I had a blast. Really made me that much more excited to get there.</p>
<p>Advice:
Monday is boring, be prepared
Don’t ask dumb questions during the briefings
Go to the dinner at Olive Garden
Be prepared to answer the following question “Did you sign the papers?” atleast 15 times.
Bring a change of workout clothes.
Listen to what the 4 digs say, it is very informative.
Ask your escort anything and everything.</p>
<p>That is all I can think of.</p>
<p>Anyone know how much a ‘single’ pair of boots is? I’m going to assume its the price of two cut in half, but I don’t want to get a money order for the wrong price.</p>

<p>$88.97 for 1 Pair of Boots according to an email I received.</p>
<p>They charge you guys like $.50 to get it up here, but there may be a long line.</p>
<p>can anyone tell me what we are supposed to bring for clothing? are jeans OK, how cold did it get, etc. any hints about what to bring would really help, as I’m kind of at a loss.</p>
<p>jeans or khakis are both ok. A collared shirt or nicer shirt would be better. Bring some athletic clothes too.</p>
<p>Yeah, we need a volleyball rematch. ;)</p>
<p>I bet we could handle 11.</p>
<p>you could take 'em</p>
<p>Off topic I guess, but are you planning for CC a gym trip the same place and time this Monday?</p>
<p>i’ll be doing an Astro project: joy!</p>
<p>I do plan on doing another volleyball match on monday for all interested.</p>
<p>Does anybody know the exact price on the money order for the boots? And also, who do I make the money order out to?</p>
<p>89.97 for one pair… double that for two… not sure who to make it out to.</p>
