The SM North ROTC held its annual biscuits and gravy breakfast the morning of March 2. 

The student-run event is held each year as a fundraiser before the national ROTC competition.

“It’s mostly just to spread awareness about our program and also to pay for our trips so we can go down to places like Florida and compete,” senior Cole Erdmann said.

However, the breakfast is about much more than just fundraising.

“My favorite part is that it brings us together as a team,” Erdmann said. “We get to train, not on reading books or working out, but on doing things to serve and help people.”
