Update: Due to the lapse in appropriations, we must regrettably announce the postponement of JROTC Raider Challenge. This decision is critical for ensuring the timeliness and safety of cadet travel, and guaranteeing the high quality of the competitive events our teams deserve. Mission-essential readiness is our top priority, and we are actively working to confirm a new date in the Spring of 2026 ensuring that when we do execute, it will be an event of the highest caliber.

We understand the tremendous effort, training, and dedication the teams have invested, and we apologize for any inconvenience this change causes. We thank everyone for their understanding and unwavering commitment to the Raider Challenge spirit. Your resilience and ability to adapt are the very hallmarks of JROTC leadership.

Updates to this site will continue to be limited until appropriations are established.

Got it!
