This weekend was our first drill back at our host location since our cadets completed summer training. All of our eligible cadets attend at least 1 training this summer. As a result, most of our cadets met the promotion requirements for their next rank.
Well done cadets!

The mission of the Sea Cadets is to build leaders of character.
Our culture stresses self discipline, service to others, accountability, and patriotism.
Today, our unit helped one of our cadets complete her service project as she works to earn Eagle Scout. Working with the local scout unit we cleaned 175 headstones contributing a combined 87 hours of service time.

The Sea Cadets instills values of discipline, accountability, and teamwork in a safe environment. We give cadets a chance to step outside of their comfort zones with dynamic challenges.
Recently, our Cadets went to the rock gym. They were able to put teamwork in action and experience personal achievement with this challenging activity.
