On August 8th, members of the Watertown Composite Squadron spent the day serving the community during Watertown's annual BIG Pop-Up event.

Throughout the day, squadron members met with visitors at the Civil Air Patrol information booth, answering questions about our cadet program, emergency services, aerospace education, and volunteer opportunities. It was a great opportunity to connect with community members and share how Civil Air Patrol serves Wisconsin.

Members also volunteered at our fundraiser at Glenn's Brat Haus, where every brat sold helps support local cadet activities, leadership development, and community service initiatives.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by to visit with us, supported our fundraiser, or simply took the time to learn more about Civil Air Patrol. We appreciate the continued support of the Watertown community and are proud to represent Wisconsin Wing through service both in the air and on the ground.

Last day for WREATH MATCH!! We are fundraising for next year's ceremony where we lay 730 wreaths on veterans graves at Oak Hill Cemetery in Watertown WI. WE NEED YOU! For every wreath bought, it will be matched but ONLY THROUGH TODAY. Please consider donating a wreath (or if your inside voice says donate 10, you probably should. ) Wreaths are $17 each.

We are already well on our way to our goal. We thank each and everyone one of you that has already donated.

Wreaths Across America ("WAA") coordinates wreath-laying ceremonies every December to "Remember, Honor, and Teach" about the sacrifices made by our veterans and their families. Please check out this page to learn how you can help by sponsoring Veterans Remembrance Wreaths or by joining us on Decembe...

I wanted to get the word out about the wreath match for Wreaths Across America to all of the veteran’s groups and sponsors from the past. I want to sincerely thank you all for donating in past years and I hope you support us for 2026. The Civil Air Patrol Cadets have worked hard and already have a head start on next year!

The wreath match is effective NOW through 12/31/25. There are 2 ways to donate 1) via check and 2) online.

1. Donate by check - Make the check out to WATERTOWN AIR CADETS. Send payment to 1543 Oconomowoc Ave, Watertown, WI 53094 to arrive no later than 12/30 so that there is time to get the checks deposited.
NOTE: We will deposit the check and buy the wreaths. We do keep full records with receipts so there is a paper trail for auditing. For all check donations, if the check amount isn’t for the exact amount for wreaths, the Watertown Air Cadet booster puts in money to round up to the nearest wreath. Wreaths are $17/each
2. Donate online. The link below will take you to the group that sponsors and fundraises for our Watertown location. This match ONLY works if you donate through the group. In the past, some groups and individuals scroll down, find the Oak Hill location and donate there. If you do that, you will not receive the match. I have provide the link to use below. Click on the link and select the red sponsor wreath directly under WI0056P - Col R C Jaye Memorial Composite Squadron.

Another Wreaths Across America is in the books. We had to cancel the ceremony due to extreme chill, but we had so many volunteers come to help lay 730 wreaths. I want to thank all of the veteran’s organization in town, Mayor Stocks, Civil Air Patrol and the public for supporting our mission. We’ll see you next year!!
