Howdy C***s!
This year's Ken Fenoglio ’70 Leadership Retreat was held on January 17-19, 2025, and was a huge success. The 2024-2025 C-2 Cadets enjoyed an amazing conference packed with thought-provoking speakers, engaging activities, and camaraderie.
Our outstanding speakers included retired US Navy Commander Chris Marrs C-2 '94, retired US Marine Corps Colonel Michael Reilly K-2 '94, and former US Army Captain Sam Tillotson C-2 '16. They imparted decades of hard-won wisdom from their civilian and military careers on topics such as Cultivating Authentic Teams, Civilian and Military Career Planning/Transitions, and Personal Finance. Key highlights were the speaker leadership panel and the Senior ‘25 Pearls of Wisdom panel- both of which allowed C***s to hear personal stories of lessons learned and ask hard-hitting questions on life and leadership.
The C-2 Cadets also engaged in leadership and team-building activities including kickball, soccer, ziplining, rock-climbing, hatchet throwing, and archery. The Texas A&M Corps Values were a theme over the weekend and the retreat truly upheld the C-2 motto, “Our Strength is Our Family.”
This weekend could not have happened without your ongoing support through the Company C-2 Ex-Cadets Association. We are honored to help continue the legacy of Ken Fenoglio C-2 ’70. Thank you for dedicating your time, talent, and treasure to mentor and develop the next generation of C-2 C***s.
