Happy New Year! May 2023 bring you good health, good fortune, and great adventures. We look forward to seeing you here at the Club soon!
If you've read the feature on our busy Banquet Sales and Catering teams in the Winter issue of Crossroads, you know that your Club's event spaces are quickly building back to pre-pandemic capacities with conferences, reunions, weddings, and other milestone events. What's more, hotel occupancy reflects this trend, and we couldn't be happier! This is our Living Memorial as it's meant to be...all aboard!
The continued generosity of our members and patriotic supporters through 2022 helped us stay on track with staff recruitment, building maintenance and upgrades, and all of our programs that Commemorate, Educate and Serve. Remember: a Recurring Gift to the Marines' Memorial, in any amount, makes a big difference by the end of the year. THANK YOU!
Also of note for January:
> MMA offices will be closed on Monday 2 January for the New Year holiday.
