The Mix Team had 3rd place finishes in the RFC Challenge (obstacle course), Cross-Country Rescue and Tire Flip, earning the team an overall 3rd place title and trophy. The Raiders hope to keep the momentum going as they prepare to compete at the Area 9 Raider Challenge at Boca Ciega High School on Saturday, November 4.

TRUNK-OR-TREAT Every year, Plant City High School hosts a Trunk-or-Treat, a community outreach event where children are provided with a safe environment to enjoy some Halloween fun. This year, the event was held on Friday, October 13 and our cadets participated by giving out treats to children who stopped by our tent.

YOUTH LEADERSHIP CONFERENCE LUNCHEON On Thursday, October 19, four of our senior leaders represented Plant City HS JROTC at the Youth Leadership Conference (YLC) luncheon. Cadets who attended YLC last may were able to reunite at this event.

WORLD’S FINEST CHOCOLATE FUNDRASIER On Saturday, October 21, several cadets participated in our World’s Finest Chocolate sale. The chocolate sale took place at Winn Dixie (Plant City) and Publix (Plant City Crossings). As a whole, cadets sold a total of 600 chocolate bars in just under two and a half hours. The chocolate sale has become an annual tradition and is a fundraising effort for battalion-wide events and necessities. The sale will continue on an individual basis as cadets are encouraged by monetary prizes for the top sellers; additionally, the companies will be ranked from first to fifth place, with the top

company selling the most chocolate bars per cadet ( ¿of chocolatebars sold¿of cadets∈company ) and earning the most

points toward Honor Company. If you would like to buy a chocolate bar, ask one of our cadets. Thank you to everybody who has supported/will support our battalion fundraiser and World’s Finest Chocolate for partnering with us!
