Civil Air Patrol to hold REIGNITE celebration in Livermore this Saturday
Livermore, California Jul 17, 2021 (Issuewire.com) - At 9:00 AM, Saturday, July 17, 2021, at the Livermore Airport Terminal in Livermore, CA, San Francisco Bay Group 2 of Civil Air Patrol will hold a REIGNITE celebration. This celebration is intended to honor the resiliency of our members and families over the past year, to welcome our returning to in-person training and activities, and to display to our members and visitors to different aspects of CAP to "reignite" the passion for our three missions: Aerospace Education, Cadet Programs, and Emergency Services.
Civil Air Patrol had been meeting virtually since early March 2020 using various virtual software like Microsoft Teams and Zoom and only started to meet in person last month.
Up to 150 cadets, adult members, and parents will be attending this celebration. The attendees represent our 10 Squadrons in the areas and cities in the Tri-Valley, Concord, San Francisco, Oakland, Hayward, Palo Alto, San Carlos, San Jose, and Watsonville and reside in the greater San Francisco Bay Area.
Activities for the day are centered around "Food and Fun". These will include orientation flights in CAP aircraft, Aerospace Education activities, fun quizzes, and demonstrations; a color guard demonstration followed by training and a friendly drill down competition; and a practice beacon hunt competition. Morning activities will be repeated in the afternoon so that members and guests can participate in all activities.
The logo was designed with inspiration provided by the Cadets that comprise our Cadet Advisory Council (CAC) - a group of young adults that advise and recommend changes to the Group Commander on cadet-related matters. The phoenix represents rebirth and renewal, the colors represent the fire of hardship and adversity our members endured over the last year while ensuring the continuation of operations, and "Reignite" has dual significance; the phoenix symbolically rises from the ashes, but this activity also exists to reinvigorate our members.

I’ve watched the same movie play out too many times: a management team receives a penetration testing report, sees a wall of findings with scary-sounding names, and immediately assumes their platform is on fire.
