The U.S. Air Force Academy Sponsor Program is excited to announce that this year’s Basic Cadet Day Out (BDO) will take place on Saturday, July 25.This event provides members from the Class of 2030 their first opportunity to leave the Academy following the start of Basic Cadet Training. The day is designed to offer rest, support, and meaningful connection with local sponsor families.
As a sponsor, you may host one or more basic cadets in your home for the day, giving them a well-needed break in a supportive environment before they head into the academic year. This is also an opportunity to learn more about the cadet experience and consider continuing as a sponsor and mentor throughout their journey at the Academy.
If you are already an active sponsor, email the Cadet Sponsor Office to confirm your status and intent to participate in this year’s BDO. The registration deadline is July 1.
If you are ready to become a sponsor, contact the office to get started.
