The Hernando County Composite Squadron is a mixed membership of both cadets and senior members. 

Cadet Meetings

Cadets meet weekly on Tuesdays from 6:30 pm to 9:00 pm. Meetings are run by the cadet leadership with supervision by senior members that have specialized Cadet Protection training. This ensures that meetings are conducted in a safe, positive environment that encourages teamwork, integrity and learning.

Cadet programs in the Civil Air Patrol use a military-style learning model that teaches cadets to both lead and learn. No form of hazing or abusive behavior is tolerated in the Civil Air Patrol. For additional information on the Cadet Protection program, please visit the Civil Air Patrol National HQ site here.

Senior Meetings

Senior members meet weekly. Meetings are typically on Thursdays unless they combine the Senior meeting and cadet meeting. The meetings start at 7:00 pm and usually last for two hours, however, national holidays and other circumstances may move the meeting date. Please check our meeting calendar for the latest information.
