A cash bar will be available at 6:00pm with the presentation of colors set for 7:00pm, meal and program to follow.  As part of the tradition, the most junior and most senior member present join in cutting the birthday cake. A DJ service will provide music for the dance to follow. We again have some great door prizes to give away. Please contact us if you would like to donate a door prize.

The prescribed uniform is Service Dress Blues, civilian coat and tie for those with no uniforms. Service Dress Blues with miniature medals and bow tie for Officers and Chiefs is optional.
