Weekends
Some weekends are dedicated to military training. These weekends are referred to as closed weekends, and occur about once a month on average. Closed weekend activities range from parades or inspections to Field Training Exercises (FTX's). FTX's are conducted at the Pine Valley Training area, Radar Ridge, or at Camp Frank D. Merrill, home of the 5th Ranger Training Battalion. During FTX's, Cadets have the opportunity to put into practical application the many tactical and technical skills learned during Monday Drill and Military Science Courses.
Weekends not dedicated to training are called Open Weekends. During open weekends Cadets are free to go home, visit friends, or simply stay on campus. Open Weekends provide the opportunity for Cadets to relax, study, hang out with your friends, and simply enjoy college life. Many Cadets enjoy the local area with activities such as tubing, rafting, fishing, or the many cultural festivals held Dahlonega. Other Cadets choose to visit the Atlanta area, which is only a little over an hour drive from campus.
