For the St. Jude fiesta, the cadets were well prepared. They gathered and discussed beforehand an outstanding organized vehicle parking plan including preventable circumstances. The cadets also designed a safe pedestrian crosswalk to prevent any physical injuries to the attendees. For safety reasons the parking detail wore brightly colored road guard vests. During their planning, the cadets also considered the weather and brought along wet-weather protection (ponchos) to prevent themselves from getting soaked in case it rained.
The fiesta was very joyful despite the pandemic. The cadets did their best to help out as much as they could at the event.
Overall, every single cadet successfully carried out their roles and prevented any mishaps from occurring.
