Welcome to the website of Mount Rainier Composite Squadron, a member of the Washington Wing of Civil Air Patrol. Mt. Rainier Squadron has served the community for over thirty years and boasts active senior and cadet programs. Based out of Pierce County Airport, Thun Field in Puyallup, Washington, Mt. Rainier Squadron provides vital services to the greater community, state, and nation by executing the three missions of C.A.P.; emergency services, cadet programs, and aerospace education. While we participate in all three missions our squadron has chosen to focus on aviation. Through our emergency services program, the squadron participates in aerial search and rescue operations in coordination with local and state government. Our cadet programs provide leadership training to roughly 50 young adults between the ages of 12-21. Through internal and external aviation education programs we ensure members of our community and squadron have access to latest information in the aviation industry. Through the dedication and efforts of its senior and cadet members, Mt. Rainier Squadron cares for a compliment of resources to aid in its missions. Our building, built by the charter members and owned by the current membership, is located on Thun Field, a primary mission base in Washington State. We are also custodians of a Cessna 206 and a 12 passenger van, both corporate assets entrusted to us. If you'd like to join the fun or find out more feel free to email us at info@mtrainiercap.org or come by to one of our meetings. |
