Cadet Brown gives his campaign speech prior to the election.

The results are in. The Cadets have spoken. When the dust settled on Monday, Cadet Nicholas Brown of 3rd Platoon emerged victorious. After a grueling campaign trail, 17 year old Brown of Oklahoma City narrowly defeated Cadets Joshua Cox, Hannah Dillard, and Blaine Fasthorse to become the Thunderbird Challenge Program’s Student Council President.

In his campaign speech, Brown spoke of the accomplishments of the Cadets over the first two months of TCP’s 22 week cycle, and he challenged them to remember why they entered the program and to stay focused on their individual and collective goals.

Asked how he felt about the responsibilities inherent in his role as Student Council President, Brown replied “I’m excited! It means more work for me, but I believe that I can manage it.” Brown went on to say that his primary goal is to make the rest of the cycle both enjoyable and productive for Cadets and staff alike.

Thunderbird Challenge Cycle 64 Graduation

Congratulations to our graduates: You've proven that with dedication and the right support, any obstacle can be overcome. Your families, instructors, and entire community are incredibly proud of what you've accomplished.

Each graduate represents a success story of determination and personal growth. They entered as candidates seeking direction and leave as confident young leaders ready to make their mark on the world.

We are thankful that at this graduation, we were honored to have two outstanding leaders address our graduates:

Major General Thomas H. Mancino, Adjutant General for Oklahoma, shared his wisdom and experience with our cadets. As Oklahoma's top military advisor to the Governor and leader of the Oklahoma National Guard, General Mancino brought valuable insights about service, leadership, and commitment to our ceremony.

Senator Ally Seifried (R-Claremore) inspired our graduates with her message about civic engagement and making a positive impact in their communities. As a proud ninth-generation Oklahoman and advocate for Oklahoma's youth, Senator Seifried's words resonated deeply with our graduating class.

Congratulations once again to our graduates and thank you to General Mancino and Senator Seifried for their inspiring words and continued support of Oklahoma's youth!
