We hope you can join us for our Fall 2024 Tailgates at the home Air Force Football games.
The CPC tailgate site is the only non-cadet site within the cadet tailgate area. Use your CPC name tag to gain entry through one of the access gates to the cadet area, or have your cadet escort you through one of the gates. As a friendly reminder, the cadet tailgate area is a no-alcohol area. We are fortunate our tailgate is included in the cadet cordon zone and do not want to forfeit our coveted spot for failing to comply with this policy! Thanks for your understanding and support! As usual, the CPC will provide the main dish (typically burgers and hot dogs) and water. All we ask is that you please sign up to bring side dishes, desserts and other drinks. We can't pull off these fun events without your help--our volunteers are the best and we are always grateful for any time you can give! Don't forget your name tag to gain access to the CPC tailgate area! CPC tailgates are in Lot 4 in the secured cadet area (SEE TAILGATE MAP ) Please read the additional Tailgate Information... Tailgates generally start 2 hours before kickoff. |
