Applications are now open for all basic attendees for the 2012 Missouri Wing Summer Encampment!  Dates are from 7 to 14 July for basic attendees, and the cost is $135.  We are very excited about this encampment and the staff is training hard to make it one of the best encampments in the nation.  Please share this information with your units.

Requirements to Apply

• Cadet must have the Curry Achievement (Cadet Airman) at time of application

Procedure to Apply
Download and complete the following forms from the document section of http://ctg.mowgcap.org/, to include all necessary parent and commander signatures:

• CAP Form 31.  Put the t-shirt size at the top.  Please also ensure there is a valid email address.
  
• CAP Form 9.  This is not to be confused with the MOWG Form 9A.  Only Part II must be completed.
• CAP Form 60.  Please leave this sheet uncut, complete both sections on each page, and place the last name at the top of page 2.
• Cadet Medication Form.  This form is required even if the cadet has no medication.  If there is a medication change between the time of application and the time of encampment, the cadet will bring a new form.

Once complete, make a copy for the cadet to retain.  Send the completed application, with a check for $135 made payable to "Missouri Wing Civil Air Patrol," to the following address:

Applications must be postmarked by 1 June 2012.  We will update the website http://ctg.mowgcap.org/ weekly with the CAP ID numbers of the applications we have received.  Please be patient and give us two weeks after the application has been mailed to put it on the website.  After two weeks, please email me to confirm receipt.  Cadets whose CAP IDs do not appear on that list at the time of the encampment are not registered with the encampment and are not eligible to attend.

Welcome Letter & Equipment List
The welcome letter and equipment list will be posted to the website http://ctg.mowgcap.org/ in early June.  For reference and planning, cadets will need a full set of BDUs and a full set of blues, to include all patches, insignia, hat, belt, etc.  The wing patch will be worn on the BDU.  Female cadets cannot wear heels due to safety concerns on the gravel.  Cadets will not need a 24 hour pack or 72 hour pack, canteen, food, or other ES related equipment.  Arrival will be early-afternoon on the 7th and mid-afternoon on the 14th.  Staff arrival and departure dates are different (6-15 July).

Encampment Prep School
Due to facility limitations, there will be no EPS this year.  The staff will use that weekend as a second training event.
