Question 1

What are Annuals?

Accepted Answer

The Annual is the largest squadron training conference of the year. They hold traditional significance in Air Force Recruiting and one evening is dedicated to the Annual Banquet, an event for end-of-year awards and accolades. The Annual's main priority is training for squadron members. However, Squadron Leadership and Key Support Liaisons try their best to coordinate family-friendly opportunities for families to meet and connect.

Question 2

Are there any customs & courtesies families should be aware of?

Accepted Answer

We will all be representing the U.S. Air Force and U.S. Space Force during our stay at the hotel. Please be respectful of fellow military families and hotel patrons by:
1. taking larger/loud gatherings to appropriate breakout rooms versus public seating,
2. wearing appropriate attire in hotel spaces and during the Annual Banquet,
3. keeping movement in-out of meeting rooms at a minimum when attending training Briefs/Presentations.

Question 3

Is there an Annual Family Agenda?

Accepted Answer

Yes, there are two agendas: the Squadron Training Agenda and Family Agenda. The Family Agenda complements the Training Agenda and provides times for families to connect while members are attending training. The get-togethers are completely optional and there is zero pressure for families to attend. Families are also encouraged to coordinate their own activities with other spouses/families.

Question 4

Is there a dress code for the Annual Banquet?

Accepted Answer

Typically, ladies wear a formal/evening dress and gentlemen wear formal attire (slacks, dress shirt, and tie). Military spouses have the option of wearing their semi-formal or mess dress uniform.

Question 5

Will childcare be provided for any events?
