Our cadets participate in parades and other similar events, receive physical fitness training, complete official US Navy correspondence courses, attend hands-on advanced trainings during the summer months on more than 70 different subjects, and are active in many areas of community service in the Hendricks County and Indianapolis areas. The opportunities for learning and adventure are unsurpassed by any other youth organization.
Our program’s four key pillars are the development of leadership, responsibility, patriotism, and service to others for young men and women aged 10-18. We also stress academic achievement, and maintaining a drug-free, gang-free lifestyle. Members of the United States Naval Sea Cadet Corps are authorized to wear Navy uniforms, suitably modified with flashes identifying them as cadets.
