GREENVILLE, S.C. — Greenville Composite Squadron (CAP), the local unit of the Civil Air Patrol, is hosting an open house on Saturday, May 28, from 11 a.m. until 2 p.m. at the squadron headquarters adjacent to the Greenville Downtown Airport (KGMU) South Ramp, 11 Airport Road Extension in Greenville.
According to Major Ron Hardgrave, squadron commander, the entire community is welcome to attend and learn more about CAP.
America’s Civil Air Patrol is celebrating its 75th anniversary this year, and the Greenville squadron is coming up on its 60th year of operation. The open house is part of the anniversary observance designed to create a greater awareness of CAP’s presence and contributions in the community, according to officials.
Members of the squadron will be present after Greenville Downtown Airport’s Fourth Annual Take Flight 5K Run to greet visitors and explain CAP’s three primary missions: Emergency services, cadet programs and aerospace education for youth and adults.
