About This Cause

The 779 Black Knight Air Cadets received their charter in 1969 and, over the decades, has had a positive influence on thousands of local young adults. It is only through the generous support of the community that we can continue to provide this outstanding program for our youth. The structured program develops valuable life skills and attributes such as teamwork, responsible citizenship, self-discipline, leadership, effective speaking and interview skills. Cadets also reap the rewards of increased socialization, team membership, self-confidence, physical fitness, learning to take initiative, and how to make wise and measured decisions. The squadron's mission is to prepare the youth of today to be the responsible citizens and community leaders of tomorrow.
