It took me 3 years to get accepted into that training! Well worth it though.
Oklahoma in Northwest Region? Somethin' amiss...
Cadet,
Check with your chain of command. It looks like it is part of summer encampment but I'm not positive.
Slt is staff leadership training at summer encampment. I just wanted to know if I had to apply for it when my wing was taking applications for cadet cadre or not....Oklahoma is in the Southwest region

Wait, we got a new region? Reminds me of a toast that was made one to the Chief of Staff of the Navy....
The OP is a 13 year old - we should cut her some slack!
My SIL once saw me with my MER t-shirt on and thought we had CAP in the UAE. :o

When I moved from the NER to the MER, I got the same reaction. I had a cartoon somewhere that I made of a camel with a CAP paint scheme. If I can find it, I'll post it.

I would assume yes.
Check with your wing cadet programs director (after asking your chain of command). Also check the wing web page.
Good luck.
Cadet,
There may not be someone here that is familiar with the Oklahoma Wing encampment procedures as we a spread out across the country and each wing can have it's own procedures. I would ask your squadron commander, and if he doesn't know the answer, ask him if you can reach out to the Wing Point of Contact (POC) for the event to ask the question. It looks like they have contact information on their facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/OKencampment (https://www.facebook.com/OKencampment)
On a side note, when requesting assistance from a wide audience (such as an online forum) I would encourage you to avoid using abbreviations when you first mention something. It can help provide some clarity and make it easier for others to understand the issue. I would also always include a bit of background on the request, for example that it is for Encampment, and whether you are applying to attend or to be on staff. In this case it was complicated by local terms that aren't common nationally (Cadet Cadre isn't an official national term, and neither is Staff Leadership Training) but you likely didn't realize this.
Best of luck!
Thank you for your help. I'm sorry I wasn't more clear I guess I didn't realize slt wasn't a national term used by everyone. But thanks again.
