Skyhawk Composite Squadron
Skyhawk Composite Squadron, Delano, Minnesota
The Skyhawk Composite Squadron was chartered in December of 2020 and has a complement of over 50 members, comprised of cadets age 12-20 and senior members age 18 and above. We are one of 24 squadrons that make up the Minnesota Wing. (This link will open a new browser window outside the skyhawk.cap.gov domain.)
Our squadron is dedicated to educating our members about aerospace, emergency services, and leadership; giving them skills that they can apply to their everyday lives.
Through their training, our cadets and senior members develop into mentors that can pass on what they have learned so that members coming in behind them may grow and become leaders.
As a Squadron, we strive to continue to learn and grow so that we can continue to serve our community and train the leaders of tomorrow.
Location: We usually meet in the “Tiger’s Den” at Delano High School (700 Elm Ave. E, Delano, MN 55328). Members will be notified if we change the location for a meeting. Occasional meetings are held at Brandt Airport, 2561 72nd St SE, Delano, MN 55328.
