Your Marine Club News for March 2021

A newsletter from one of our fellow veterans organizations in the Bay Area.

THIS MONTH: MARCH 2021

This month marks one year since we Californians were first given stay-at-home orders and this beloved gathering place, our Club and Hotel, fell silent for the first time ever. For the Marines’ Memorial, it has been a year of wrenching choices and adaptation, with a steady view toward keeping this Living Memorial alive for the generations to come.

If your extraordinary financial support and encouragement are any indication, we have a feeling that when it’s safe to travel and gather again, the Club will be bursting at the seams. We look forward to seeing you!

Also of note for March:

> HAPPY 106th BIRTHDAY to the US Navy Reserve!
