We are a citizen-led military support organization founded in 1902 to support the sea services — U.S. Navy, U.S. Marine Corps, U.S. Coast Guard and U.S.-flag Merchant Marine. The New York Council was the first council established and is now one of the largest and most active of the Navy League of the United States councils. Many New Yorkers and Sailors know us as one of the founders of Fleet Week New York.
Charting our course for 2025
Are you a Council member interested in getting more involved in our activities in support of the sea services and local youth programs? If so, we encourage you to join a planning committee. Our most recent Bosun’s Pipe newsletter has information about some of our committees, and we are scheduling meetings in February for members interested in Fleet Support, Fleet Week and Legislative Affairs and March for the Membership Committee.
