As a cadet at Wentworth, I have made many friends and learned a great
deal about life. I plan to enter into law
enforcement once I graduate.
Wentworth is helping me achieve that
goal.

Cadet life
I SCREAM... Ameriserve provides food & fun
The team from
Ameriserve
treated the
cadets to many
special events.
Ice cream was
always a
favorite.
Sunday Brunch Mrs. Shirley carves up a Sunday turkey. Too often we take for granted the little things, but
Ameriserve's staff could always be counted on for a good home-
cooked meal.
I'm over here... .Cadets serve themselves
during the buffet style Valentine Supper
prepared with love by Ameriserve.
30
There were many field trips on the weekends. The 120th Corps went to the circus, the Zoo, Science City, the Mall, movies, paintballing, ice skating and even Worlds of Fun.
KARAOKE Anyone? Cadets gather around a monitor for Karaoke night sponsored by
the Parents Association.
KC WIZARDS SOCCER
Cadets Taylor, Hobin, Christensen and the rest of the
High School Soccer team enjoy a night at
Arrowhead Stadium watching the Kansas City Wizards under
the stars.
Among the many new
faces to Wentworth this year, Captain Charles
Withrow joined the Wentworth Triad as the Director of
Cadet Activities. CPT Withrow, "The Fun
Guy", sponsored weekly events and trips for the 120th Corps of Cadets.
HANG-OUTS
Everything from toothpaste
to wall decorations, the
Quartermaster store has it.
CPT Meierer and CPT
Schmidt work thanklessly to
issue uniforms, pass out
packages and sell everything
you need.
Above
The Quartermaster store is a popular hang-out among cadets. After dinner, cadets can be seen lining the check-out counter as they purchase snacks, books, pens, paper and everything you can imagine.

Honor It has become
tradition for many cadets to find the resting place of
Stephen G. Wentworth, founder of
Wentworth Military Academy, and have
their photograph taken. Cadet
Williamson pays his respects to our
founder.
Lower Left College cadets spent much of their free time studying for those big tests.

Wentworth Saves 540 Lives:
COMMUNITY
entworth
hosted
two community blood
drives this year. The
combined blood
drives brought in over
two hundred donors
and collected over 180
pints of blood. Mrs.
Whirley, from the
Community Blood
Center, explained
how three lives are
saved with each pint
of blood collected.
"When blood is
collected, 90% is
separated into
components,
plasma, and red
cells. One pint of
blood can help 3
people! On behalf
of the Community
Blood Center and
our local hospital
patients, we say
Thank you"
Candy Whirley.
34
Peace Out SFC Hutchinson made it a point to donate each time this year. While many faculty members were unable to donate, the JROTC department had 100% attendance, helping 9 people.
Everything OK here! c/ SGT Morgan signals to the camera that all is well during his donation. Morgan donated at both of Wentworth's Blood Drives.
Sit Back and Relax! c/CPL Nick Ames donated twice this year. Ames preferred to have his blood drawn from his left arm and during second hour!
Have A Drink On Us Cadet Richey (pictured left) enjoys a refreshing beverage while donating. Richey donated twice this year.

Vintage Homes Tour
The Anderson House is a favorite among visitors and townspeople alike. Located in historic Lexington, MO, the Anderson house was completed in 1853.
Pride... Lexington's annual
Civil War Vintage
Homes Tour was a
huge success.
Wentworth cadets,
dressed in period
clothing, escorted
tourists through
many of Lexington,
Missouri's antebel
lum homes on Sep-
tember 18th and
19th, 1999. Many of
the cadets are mem

Headquarters Company members had the opportunity to march in the Mardi Gras parade in New Orleans, LA. They also marched in the Apples and Antiques parade in Lexington, MO, the Mushroom Festival parade, Homecoming parade, and many others.

Jr. High Basketball Hoop Dreams
The Wentworth Red Dragon Junior High Basketball team hung together during 7 tough losses this year. Cadet Keith Kiefer and Cadet Zach Laufenburger helped bring their team to 1 victory with a 41-35 win against the Hardin Bulldogs on November 9th in the Wikoff Athletic Center. Cadets Sharp, President and Swanson also assisted in the victory. Coach Dieter Bock was enthusiastic with an early win under his belt. Unfortunately, the Junior High's dreams of going to Districts would fall short. "I admire the cadets that continue to show up for practices and put as much effort into the games each week", one of the coaches was noted as saying.
