Yuba Sutter Sea Cadets
Staff
Adult Volunteers
Nationally, our 3,250 volunteers dedicate over 278,000 hours of their time every year! Our adults guide our cadets towards a future filled with adventure, leadership, teamwork, knowledge, and friendship. Join us on our mission to build leaders of character.
A volunteer must possess good moral character, a sound mind, and be capable of credibly communicating our Sea Cadet core values to our cadets. Each adult must be a U.S. citizen or legal permanent resident, free of felony convictions, and will undergo a background investigation during the enrollment process. We're always looking for dedicated adult volunteers that meet the requirements listed above. Depending on the billet assignment, attendance at drills may not be a requirement. Open billets are listed below, but if you have a unique skillset, we'd love to chat with you. Additionally, we're also interested in adults with armed services backgrounds to serve as guest speakers.
