Well, we asked for communication, and we got it. This was posted on the USAFA AOG website today, and since it specifically asks that we disseminate it, I am copying and pasting below.

Sounds like Doolie Day out on Sunday, August 7th is for Sponsor families and cadets only----NO PARENTS. Makes sense to me. The directive is very clear, and I for one, plan to respect it. The host families will no doubt play an integral role in the lives of our basic cadets, and we should not interfere in the bonding—no matter how tempting.

The Sponsor Office called over to let us know there is incorrect information out there about Doolie Day Out. They asked me to post this and ask parents to disseminate it as much as possible. If someone can get this out on the family comm channels, it would be appreciated.

From Cadet Sponsor Office: As per our conversation, parents cannot pick up their cadets for Doolies Day Out. We have assigned all cadets to sponsor families and all paperwork has gone out. This is an official Academy function and it is extremely important for the cadets to have some time with the sponsors in order to start building, what could be, a lifelong relationship.

If you could please get the word out to parents that the earlier information was incorrect and they can’t pick up their cadet, we would be so grateful. It has been an absolute zoo around here trying to field all of these calls.

Thanks for your help,
Stacey
