MMA Class of 2022 Gives Senior Gift to the Academy

Thank you to the Class of 2022 for their senior gift to the Academy — a picnic table to be housed in the newly renovated Carter Memorial outdoor classroom. This 24'x26' outdoor classroom is sized to accommodate four tables and adds a new learning space for for our teachers to use and cadets to enjoy, along with supporting our summer camps and special events.

Originally a walled patio, Carter Memorial was renovated in 2010 to add a stamped concrete pad. In 2021 the patio wall was demolished and a new one built. A roof was added and the patio extended to change the space into a covered outdoor classroom.

We are grateful for the MMA Class of 2022 for the gift of the table for their MMA brothers to enjoy in the future. The bestowing of a senior gift is an MMA tradition.
