March 25, 2016 |
The Idaho Congressional Delegation announced it
will host its 2016 Service Academy Days in Boise
on April 2, Lewiston on April 21, and Coeur
d’Alene on April 28. Each Service Academy Day offers students, parents, and counselors the opportunity to meet with academy liaisons, cadets, and midshipmen from each school to ask questions and receive information. Staff from Idaho’s Congressional delegation will also be on hand to answer questions about the application process for receiving a nomination to the academies. This year, the United States Military Academy at West Point, the U.S. Naval Academy, the U.S. Air Force Academy, and the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy will all be represented at each event.
