Some of our cadets go on to:

• military service
• engineering & STEM careers
• skilled trades
• leadership roles in college and beyond

But every single one gains confidence and discipline along the way.

🎟️ RAFFLE BASKETS GALORE + 50/50! 🎟️
We are bringing an absolutely dangerous amount of raffle baskets to this year’s Pancake Breakfast. Seriously… we may have gotten a little carried away.

There’s a huge variety of prizes — family fun, themed baskets, local goodies, self-care items, gift cards, and more. Basically, if you leave empty handed, it’s probably because you ignored the ticket table.

TWO levels of baskets:
Standard Baskets — $2 each or 6 for $10
Premium Baskets — $5 each or 5 for $20
PLUS a morning 50/50 raffle!

Because nothing pairs with pancakes quite like the possibility of leaving with cash.
And that's not even mentioning the door prizes!
Come eat, support an amazing youth leadership program, and test your luck. Worst case scenario? You still got unlimited pancakes!

Parents often tell us:

“My kid just needed something that pushed them a little.”

That’s exactly what we provide.

Leadership opportunities. Responsibility. Growth.

🌸 Happy Mother’s Day! 🌸

Special shout out to all of our Sea Cadet moms… we see you.
⚓ Tolerating the constant updates and last-minute messages
⚓ Driving that Cadet everywhere
⚓ Debating between trainings and opportunities
⚓ Remembering the little things your Cadet forgot
But most importantly… loving these kids so deeply that it shows in everything you do. Your sacrifices, support, patience, and encouragement are helping shape their future and build the leaders they are becoming.
Thank you for everything you do behind the scenes. We truly could not do this without you.
Happy Mother’s Day to all the incredible moms in our Sea Cadet family!

Confidence doesn’t come from being told you’re capable.

It comes from being put in situations where you prove it to yourself.

That’s where Sea Cadets makes a difference.
