**Service to Community in Action!**

Cadets from Commonwealth Challenge Class 64 were honored to support Newsome Park Elementary School's Field Day, demonstrating the importance of giving back through service. Opportunities like this reinforce one of the National Guard Youth ChalleNGe Program's core components: **Service to Community**.

Throughout the day, cadets assisted with activities, encouraged students, and served as positive role models for younger children. By volunteering their time and energy, they gained valuable leadership experience while making a meaningful impact on the local community.

Thank you to Newsome Park Elementary School for welcoming our cadets and allowing them to be part of such a fun and rewarding event. Every act of service helps build stronger leaders and stronger communities!

CCYA cadets had an incredible opportunity to train alongside the dedicated men and women of the United States Coast Guard this week. From physical fitness to teamwork and discipline, our cadets were able to experience firsthand the level of commitment and professionalism it takes to serve.

Opportunities like this not only build strength, but also inspire our cadets to push beyond their limits and consider future paths of service. We are grateful to the Coast Guard for their mentorship and for setting such a powerful example of leadership in action.U.S. Coast Guard YardU.S. Coast Guard Southeast
