USNSCC Twin Cities Squadron

The U.S. Naval Sea Cadet Corps — Twin Cities Squadron 097 helps build leaders of courage, commitment and honor for the future.

Honor. Courage.  Commitment. 

These three words are what makes our young men and women stand apart. 

We are proud to be the NSCC Twin Cities Squadron 097 and we respectfully ask for your support for Give to the Max Day to continue to provide the programming and services that serve young people to find their way to leading the future. 

For over 50 years the U.S. Naval Sea Cadet Corps (USNSCC) has been committed to providing American youth numerous benefits. We are a federally chartered non-profit youth organization for young people. The USNSCC is compromised of two programs. The Naval Sea Cadet Corps (NSCC) program is for young people ages 13 through the completion of high school. Also included under the USNSCC umbrella is our junior program the Navy League Cadet Corps (NLCC), for young people ages 10-13.

Cadets get to experience hands-on, exciting training aboard U.S. Navy/Coast Guard ships and shore stations making us unique among all other youth programs. Cadets have the opportunity for adventure and travel during school vacations where they learn lifelong skills and how to become leaders in their units, schools, and communities.

Through Sea Cadet leadership, your son or daughter will learn skills in basic seamanship and its naval adaptations, while also learning the values of patriotism, courage, self-reliance, teamwork, and accountability. Our cadets and alumni often cite the feelings of pride, camaraderie, respect, and honor associated with their experience in the program

The U.S. Naval Sea Cadet Corps is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization providing learning and leadership development opportunities to more than 9,000 cadets across the country in a drug-free and gang-free environment. For more information, visit U.S. Naval Sea Cadet Corps.
