Assessment of Real Property and supplies:

 I am directing that we begin the process of sorting through everything we have on the main level and in the attic.  We will go through every drawer, cabinet, box, file, etc. to see what can be discarded, transferred to another CAP unit, or donated to a worthy cause.  We will also reorganize each room to ensure its efficient and optimal use in support of our SM and Cadet programs.  During this process, we will also conduct a deep cleaning of the floors, walls, furniture, exterior, etc.  To support this, we will need to determine if we need to purchase items ahead of time.  I will work with you individually to identify what we may need.  Required cleaning to be completed:
