On April 30, after 1200 care packages have been packed and shipped, volunteers and Marine families and friends are invited to attend our volunteer appreciation lunch at the Marine Parents building. (We are no longer having the luncheon at the Courtyard Marriott due to room reservation complications.)

A BBQ lunch will be served, and attendees will have the opportunity to mingle with other Marine families and supporters. We will be recognizing all of our volunteers and presenting various awards to those who have dedicated remarkable time and energy to MarineParents and its outreach programs.

Since we are recognizing our volunteers at this event, lunch is on us! However, for those of you who are with us for the first time, there will be a donation jar where we will welcome contributions.

In addition, we will have a very special guest speaker, a former Recon Marine who you will not want to miss! Click here to read his story.

Join us for this informal but exciting event!
