Dark Ages Care Packages
​February
​
The period between winter and spring break is known as the "Dark Ages" and can be a tough time for cadets dealing with short days, winter weather and a long-stretch of tough classes. WAFAPA lifts their spirits with a care package from home. Assembly happens during our winter meeting.​

Annual Spring Meeting & Graduation Gifts
April or May Weekend Event
​
Our annual meeting in the spring is a time to celebrate our Firstie parents, elect new club officers and participate in a fun group activity.  Past spring meetings have ranged from touring air bases in Wisconsin to a WAFAPA family feud at Game Show Battle Room.  We also present the graduation gift of gorgeous hand-crafted wooden boxes to our Firstie families.
​
(Pro-tip: This gift alone pays for your lifetime WAFAPA membership.)
