CLICK HERE to download the Physical Fitness Guide that explains it all!
To participate:
1. Right click here and save to your computer using your name as the file name. The Excel document contains worksheets for each month and a summary sheet. You must enable macros. It will ask for your information when you open the file.
2. Members enter data each month, with monthly total automatically transferred to the summary sheet. Members assign points for physical fitness activities based on time and the activity level, with the final decision made by the Director of Cadet Programs. Time is based on the number of minutes spent at the activity level (which does not include warm up, cool down, or breaks). Questions regarding points for activities should be directed to Maj Mark Evans
3. Members are to submit the entire Excel document by the 5th day of the next month to Maj Mark Evans. Incomplete spreadsheets will be returned. By submitting, the member certifies that the data is correct and accurately reflects the level of activity performed.
4. Monthly website postings will include recognitions for top cadets, seniors, and unit.
5. Certificates are issued for attaining 100 points, 250 points, 500 points and 1000 points. Once a member is listed on the recognition list as having achieved a level, the unit commander issues the certificate for the 100 point level and the group commander issues the certificate for the 250 point level. The Wing will issue certificates for the highest levels.
