Hello, and welcome to the US Naval Sea Cadets of Rhode Island. I am LTJG José Taboada, Commanding Officer of NCBC Battalion, Quonset Point, RI. If you are a young man or woman who has an interest in joining the Corps of Naval Sea Cadets, I would encourage you to come to one of our meetings that are held on most Saturday mornings during the school year (go to our schedule calendar for exact dates and times - click here for the schedule). We meet at Quonset Point and at Naval Station Newport (click here for driving directions) with easy access to all in southeast New England. Drop in and see for yourself what being a Sea Cadet is all about. Also take a moment and click on the button on the right of the screen - the button marked "FAQ" (Frequently Asked Questions). You'll find much information about the Sea Cadets there as well. Send an email message to contact@riseacadets.org at any time if you want to know more. And if you are ready to join Sea Cadets, then click this link and you can get started on the necessary paperwork. We're looking forward to meeting you!
