Students invited to learn about military academies

An informational event on U.S. military academies is scheduled tonight at Sage Hill School in Newport Coast, hosted by Newport Beach Rep. John Campbell. High schoolers can learn about the U.S. Air Force, the Coast Guard, the Merchant Marines, military and naval academies.

This is the first time the congressman’s office has held the event in Newport Beach. Students who want to attend an academy may want to meet Campbell, since they’ll need a congressional recommendation with their application.

The service academy information night will be held at 7 p.m. in the multi-purpose lecture hall at Sage Hill School, 20402 Newport Coast Drive, Newport Coast. For information call Campbell’s district office at (949)756-2244.
