WASHINGTON, D.C. (KTVZ) — Cadets with the Navy Junior Reserve Officers Training Corps (NJROTC) from Mountain View High School, La Pine, and Crook County are in Washington, D.C., and marched in the 250th Memorial Day Parade today.
They also attended the National Memorial Day Concert on the West Lawn of the Capitol Building.
The program provides leadership education designed to develop and inform citizens on the Navy’s core values of honor, courage, and commitment.
Mountain View High School was not funded by NJROTC at the time of the trip’s planning, so they had to collect all of their funds via fundraising events throughout the school year to be able to go.
Thanks for representing Central Oregon on this very important day!
