The Call to Convention and convention packets have been mailed to squadrons for whom the Department has Officer forms. All convention forms, are also available on the Forms page of the Detachment website.

Please adhere to the deadlines for submission of any paperwork, and contact the Detachment officers with any questions. Please join us at convention and add your voice to help guide the Detachment of NJ in the coming year.
