Summary

The board approved travel for the Canyon City High School JROTC rifle team to the Western Region Service Championships in Sandy, Utah (Feb. 4–7, 2026); Coach Damon said the Army will cover expenses and described lodging and logistics.

The board voted to approve an out-of-state travel request for the Canyon City High School JROTC rifle team to travel to Sandy, Utah from Feb. 4–7, 2026, to compete in the Western Region Service Championships. Coach Damon described the team's performance last year (tenth in the Western Region; 40th nationally) and said he expects a stronger showing this season. He outlined logistics: travel via Colorado Springs, lodging at a Courtyard/Marriott in Sandy, and chaperone arrangements; he said the Army will pay competition-related expenses.

A board member moved to approve the request, the motion was seconded, and the board approved it by roll-call vote. Members congratulated the students and wished them luck; Coach Damon said he would keep the board posted on results and expressed hope they might qualify for nationals in Ohio in March.

No cost detail was provided in the public motion beyond Coach Damon's statement that the Army would cover expenses. The board recorded the travel dates and asked no further procedural questions before approving the motion.
