HOW MUCH?
|
|
The initial enrollment amd annual renewal fee charged by the NSCC national organization for Cadets is $60/year, much of that going towards the Cadet's accident and liability insurance coverage while they are engaged in Sea Cadet activities. Locally, NCBC Battalion charges an initial $240 uniform fee. The uniform fee pays for the complete base uniform to outfit your Cadet, including rank insignia and the required patches (flashes). This is a one-time fee, as the Cadet outgrows the uniform they will turn it in for the next appropriate size (for most Cadets this happens at least once a year). There is no additional charge for these replacement uniforms.
The annual enrollment fee for adults is $20, again, almost all of that is for accident and liability insurance.
Payment can be made either by cash, check, or PayPal. |
