Dear Valued Supporters,
It is with great enthusiasm that we share news of the upcoming 249th Marine Corps Birthday Ball, hosted by the Marine Corps League, LCpl Jacob D. Hayes Detachment #1426. We are thrilled to return to the Omni PGA Frisco Resort on November 23, 2024, for an unforgettable evening of military tradition, history, and ceremony.
The Omni PGA Frisco Resort not only serves as an exquisite venue for our black-tie celebration but also offers us the opportunity to expand and share this remarkable event with a broader community.
Speaking of sharing the experience with our broader community; we are currently in serious discussions with multiple nursing homes and assisted living facilities to extend the unique experience of the Marine Corps Birthday Ball to their residents. Our vision includes creating an evening for their residents filled with dinner, cake, and other festivities, including a live stream of the Birthday Ball ceremonies, providing an enriching experience to those who cannot attend in person. Your support can transform this vision into a reality.
