Shasta Composite Squadron 126 - Civil Air Patrol

Shasta Composite Squadron 126, a local unit of the Civil Air Patrol (CAP), has been serving Tehama and Shasta counties with pride. Located at the Redding Airport, our squadron is dedicated to inspiring youth and strengthening community resilience through aerospace education, emergency response training, and leadership development.

Our mission is to empower cadets with skills, confidence, and a sense of duty to serve. Through programs like orientation flights, leadership training, and hands-on aerospace activities, we provide youth with unique, life-changing experiences that pave the way for future success.

In addition to building tomorrow’s leaders, we support our community through search and rescue operations, disaster relief, and educational outreach. Our cadet training programs instill discipline and teamwork, preparing members for careers in aviation, STEM, and service. This year alone, we’ve seen cadets achieve new ranks, earn distinguished awards, and step up as role models for others.

Your support is crucial in helping us continue to offer scholarships, updated technology, and essential resources for our programs. Every donation helps fund opportunities for cadets to attend flight academies, explore STEM fields, and develop as leaders in their community. Together, we can empower our youth and build a stronger community for all.

Join us in making a difference. Donate today to help us achieve our mission and inspire the next generation of leaders and community servants.
