JROTC cadet Trenton Carpenter, at Cactus High School, was recently presented a youth award by Larry Fellenz of the Sun City Elks Lodge #2559.

Lodge #2559 participates in a select youth awards program for JROTC cadets in three area high schools: Cactus, Peoria and Moon Valley high schools.

Cadets who receive the award are selected by the high schools, which feel the student has proven themselves to be a leader in academic achievement, as well as community service projects, and has maintained the highest standards of performance in all fields of endeavor.

As a part of the awards ceremony, the cadet receives a framed certificate from the Elks Lodge, an Elk’s medal specifically designed for this Elks JROTC youth program and a small monetary award.
