Greetings! Thank you for your ongoing support of the Seattle Council's efforts to support the Sea Services, the Men and Women who serve and their Families. Your support is important and appreciated.

This will be a special night as we thank outgoing Council President, Diane Jaffa, for her three years as Council President (plus one other prior year as President) and induct Dan Neilsen as our new President. (FYI- Diane will continue in her role as Executive Director.)

At this event we will also thank the 2012 Volunteer Leadership Team and induct the 2013 Team. Along with hosting and honoring outstanding Sea Services Representatives, we will honor some special volunteers and sponsors.

Congratulations to Diane Jaffa, Seattle Council President and Executive Director, on receiving the Superior Public Service Award from the Honorable Ray Mabus, Secretary of the Navy, at our Annual Coast Guard Night Dinner.

1st Annual Flag Raising Ceremony held at the Museum of Flight on Armed Forces Day. Seattle Council partnered with the Army Association and the Air Force Association to purchase new Service Flags for the entrance to the Museum of Flight. ROTC students from each service assisted with the Flag Raising.

The Navy League of the United States was founded in 1902 with the encouragement and personal funding of President Theodore Roosevelt.

The Navy League is unique among military oriented associations in that it is a civilian organization dedicated to the education of our citizens, including our elected officials and the support of the men and women of the sea services and their families.

You need not have served in the military to be a member of the Navy League.

Please Come Join Us!
