Having completed the new Civil Air Patrol (CAP) Squadron Facility at the Glendale Municipal Airport, the CAP is honoring Rep. Jerry Weiers for his efforts on their behalf. They will be doing so by dubbing their new facility as the Jerry Weiers Education Center. The dedication will take place at the facility itself on Monday, April 2nd, 2012. The ceremony will begin at 18:00 (6:00pm) at the CAP building.
“Thanks to the tenacity and dedication of Representative Weiers, we are celebrating the opening of this facility that is dedicated to the aerospace education, leadership and search and rescue training of generations of young people to come”, said CAP Capt. Peter Mountain.
“This is the result of 12 years of hard work by community members, the CAP, airport managers and the city of Glendale. I am proud that I was able to help make this dream become a reality”, said Weiers.
The Civil Air Patrol is an auxiliary of the U.S. Air Force and provides aerospace education, cadet programs and emergency services.
