The Patriot Gouge - Past events
Ice Skating Fundraiser Ice Skating could be difficult, but
also easy. February 21, 2015 our
NJROTC program hosted an Ice
Skating fundraiser at Joan Kroc Ice
Skating Rink. 2 hours of skating
around the rink having fun and
falling on their butts. Thank you to
everyone who attended!!

Gage - Big Hero 6 Our cadets watched over children from
Gage Elementary School again on
February 27, 2015. They built things with
legos, did arts and crafts, helped served
food to the little ones and then watched
Big Hero 6 with them! Thank you to the
cadets that help out!

We helped the staff organize
everything and serve the food, then we
watched Big Hero 6, which was a total
bonus. And it was a ton of fun
talking and playing with the little
kids because they were all so
energetic and adorable!
How was this event?
