What type of community service might NJROTC cadets participate in?

Volunteering at local events or organizations is a crucial aspect of community service for NJROTC cadets. This type of service aligns closely with the NJROTC's mission to develop informed and engaged citizens while fostering leadership and teamwork skills. By participating in local events, cadets can support their communities, work collaboratively with others, and gain valuable experiences that promote civic responsibility.

Engagement in community service through local events also offers cadets an opportunity to connect with diverse groups, learn about community needs, and understand the importance of serving others. This practice not only benefits the community but also enhances the cadets' personal development and sense of belonging.

In contrast, while cleaning up national parks can be a form of community service, it is typically more specialized and may not have the same local focus as volunteering at community events. Participating in political campaigns and helping in local businesses may not align with the core values of NJROTC, which emphasizes community engagement and the development of citizenship outside of political affiliations or commercial interests.
