At this week’s monthly detachment meeting SgtMaj Lemus from Adams City MC JROTC presented plaques and certificates recognizing detachment individual members, American Legion Post 161 Arvada, Foothills Detachment 469 and the Department of Colorado for all donating to the JROTC trip to DC earlier this year. A few thousand dollars were quickly raised from all of these groups through the coordination efforts of Miguel Salazar back in the spring. The JROTC midshipmen went to DC marched in a parade and visited some patriotic sites during their trip. Thanks to all that supported this effort…be ready to donate again next spring!

Foothills Marines supported the annual awards ceremony for the Adams City High School Marine Corps JROTC.
Two cadets were awarded the League’s Distinguished Citizen Award.
Foothills Marines also helped by presenting awards from a few other veterans organizations that could not send a representative.
In general all cadets were recognized for their achievements, graduating seniors and leadership of the cadet company were recognized and stepped down while the new leadership was installed.
The Adams City MCJROTC program was shut down for a year or two due to lack of staff. SgtMaj Lemus has brought it back to life in past two years.
