HELLO PARENTS!
We can always use an extra hand at events, helping to promote
our program and making these events a success.
We'll be contacting parents who have previously submitted a Parent

in helping out. Any amount of time you can spend with us organizing,
preparing and assisting in events is greatly appreciated.

November Drill to ENS M. Pawli
The Parent Spot
We want to thank all
cadets, staff and parents who participated in November over
Veteran's Day weekend. It sure was a long weekend, beginning Friday
morning at Forest Lawn and ending Sunday night at the Galleria Mall.
As you know, we have a wonderful division, and need to spread the
word. Between the memorial service, Channel 7 and the mall, we got
our faces out there and hopefully sparked an interest.
As for myself, I was
happy to get to know each of you a little better. We had a
successful weekend because of your dedication!
I look forward to
seeing you at December drill and wish all a Merry Christmas! Please
be ready for more recruiting events in the New Year!

recovered!)
Another Note to ALL PARENTS
Parents,
To the extent that it is possible, we will have qualified medical personnel aboard for overnight drills. We will need documentation for any medications to be administered during drill. Please use form NSCTNG025 to accompany any prescription medication that your child will bring with them. This form requires a doctor’s signature. Immediately upon reporting, medication and proper paperwork must be turned over to the commanding officer or his designee by the parent or guardian. Any cadet found in possession of medication; prescription or otherwise, will be subject to disciplinary action. Parents are required to recover any remaining medication or containers before your cadet are dismissed. These are the regulations that we are directed to follow and we will make all reasonable accommodations; within our power, to see that your child is cared for. Thank you for your cooperation, and if you have any concerns or questions, please feel free to contact me.

Commanding Officer
The Sullivans Division USNSCC

Important issues that need to be Addressed.
This
is another overview of many important points that need to be reviewed.
Medications/ Drug Awareness – We can not dispense medications on a regular basis. However; We must be aware if any cadet is on a medication. Cadets can not have medication in their possession at any time.
If your child requires this you need to contact LCDR Hall prior
to drill.
Attendance
–This is part of Commitment – If the cadet requires
an excused absence they must use their chain of command prior to
drill.
Medical Forms
– (NSCADM 020 Medical History, NSCADM 021
Medical Exam) – on the Division website:
www.sullivansdivisionusnscc.org
Uniforms
–This is part of Honor- Appearance should be
impeccable. No stains or wrinkles. Correct lengths, sizes, shoes
shined. No missing parts at any function – especially at
Parades/Memorials.
Changes in Contact Information – Please notify Admin as soon as
possible.
If a Cadet comes to Drill without his/her ID especially at the NOSC they will be Denied entry into the NOSC and their parent(s) will be called to come back and pick them up.
WE are still INNEED of A FEW GOOD Volunteers!
The Unit is Currently looking for any Able Bodied Doctor or Registered Nurse willing to make a Commitment to attend our Drills once a Month and possibly attend a few other functions here and there.
We cannot strees enough our need for this kind of volunteer, so please if anyone knows of anyone with some spare time and a generous heart send them our way.
Volunteer today and help shape the minds and guide the hearts of tomorrows leaders.
Please Contact; LCDR K. Hall or LT(jg) J. Pawli
Seven Seas Sailing
We have been given a wonderful opportunity to work with Seven Seas Sailing on a weekly basis and I encourage everyone (Staff & Cadets) to get onboard. Mr. Zimmerman and his Crew at Seven Seas Sailing have asked that we come out on Saturday, Sunday or Monday to help out with people learning to Sail. This helps both our programs, firstly it helps Sevens Seas by having more people there to assist with the sailing training and secondly it helps our program by allowing us to get hands on training with sailing while getting community service credit at the same time.
Who would not want to earn community service while sailing out on the water??
There is also many other projects Mr. Zimmerman has offered to us to help out with, one major example is helping out with the renevations of a 40 foot lighthouse near the small boat harbor.
There will be more information to follow on this and how to sign up in the very near future as the ground rules need to be setup and verified by the CO.
