=== Acceptance Parade and Parents' Weekend === The Acceptance Parade celebrates the end of Basic Cadet Training (BCT) for incoming fourth-class cadets. At the Parade, fourth-class cadets are awarded their uniform shoulder boards in recognition of completing BCT and being accepted into the Cadet Wing. Fourth-class cadets formally take the USAFA Honor Code Oath. The Legacy class, the class that graduated 50 years prior to the incoming class' graduation, presents a copy of the Contrails book to the outstanding Basic Cadet from each of the ten BCT squadrons.<ref name=":0">{{cite web|title=Traditions|url=https://www.usafa.edu/about/traditions/|website=United States Air Force Academy|language=en-US|access-date=2020-05-31|archive-date=29 May 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200529025443/https://www.usafa.edu/about/traditions/|url-status=live}}</ref><ref name=":1" /><ref>{{cite web|title=Air Force Academy basic trainees to join Cadet Wing at Acceptance Parade|url=https://www.usafa.edu/news/air-force-academy-basic-trainees-to-join-cadet-wing-at-acceptance-parade/|date=2018-08-03|website=United States Air Force Academy|language=en-US|access-date=2020-05-31|archive-date=9 August 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200809223833/https://www.usafa.edu/news/air-force-academy-basic-trainees-to-join-cadet-wing-at-acceptance-parade/|url-status=live}}</ref> A few weeks later, over the Labor Day weekend, the Cadet Wing participates in Parents' Weekend.
