Archery Competition

On Saturday, February 20, our varsity archery team attended a brigade-wide archery competition. The competition was held at Lincoln High School, and the other schools in attendance were Madison High, Crawford High, San Diego High, and Lincoln High. After all three flights, parents and peers of shooters were allowed to take a few shots with the guidance of the archers. After the parents and peers were allowed to shoot, the final scores were tallied and the winning individuals and schools were announced. Third place individual went to our own Mikaila Lane, Second place to our Asia Dunbar, and First to our Lily Bell! Our archery team as a whole also placed first! We are very proud of our archers for doing their best Saturday, and look forward to seeing how they improve in the future.

Kearny AJROTC at Taft Middle School

2/10/2016

 
On February 5, 2016, a few cadets from our battalion attended a lunchtime event at Taft Middle School. At this event, Anthony Perez and Jose Ortega performed a two-man armed drill performance for the kids. Accompanied by Asia Dunbar, Jake Taylor, and Haley Williams, the cadets there spoke with many student about JROTC, how it has benefited us, how it could benefit them, and all the fun activities that are JROTC exclusive, such as archery. Asia Dunbar brought her bow to show off, and many kids were allowed to hold the rifles. Anthony Perez also did small encore performances for small groups of the kids in the quad! We had lots of fun, and we made some friends with incoming freshmen, and hopefully incoming cadets!
