Service Academy day cancelled

Due to the government shutdown, the statewide
Service Academy Day at Gowen Field has been
cancelled for tomorrow, October 5. However, my
office has taken two calls from parents of
potential West Point cadets in Idaho Falls, who
wondered if the event was going to happen as
scheduled.
It is not taking place.
It would be a shame if parents and their high
school-age children were to travel across the
state for this, only to be turned away at the
Gowen Field gate.
Secondly, the October Idaho Army and Air
National Guard unit training assemblies –
‘monthly drills’ – are postponed, that would
also help us get the word out to some 5,000 of
our personnel. Drill was scheduled to take place
October 5-6. |
