The Starlight Parade and Starlight Run are being held Saturday, May 31 this year. The unit is putting together a trip down to watch again for those that want to attend! We'll leave the Elks Lodge at 1700 and travel via the unit bus downtown to "our spot" (location to be determined at a later date).
We'll much on burgers, etc downtown.
We're return to the Elks Lodge and sleep either in the back of the Lodge in tents (depending on weather) or inside in the Emil room. Males/females will be SEPARATED and staff will be vigilant.
YMs will be ready for pick up on Sunday morning at 0900 at the Elks.
Please send $10 for chow monies to drill on May 31. This will cover Saturday lunch and Saturday dinner. (Breakfast on Sunday morning will be eaten at home once they return.)
Recruits in Plt 53108 WILL BE allowed to participate in the Starlight Parade as they will have graduated earlier that day.
If your YM is interested in running in the Starlight Run that precedes the Parade, click "Read More" for more information on how to sign them up ahead of time. You will be responsible for getting your YM to the starting point of the run as well as getting them from the finish line to our "special spot" along the parade route. Please let us know ahead of time if your YM is running the run and will be joining us for the parade so we know we're looking for YMs to join us.

About the Young Marines
 The Young Marines is the official youth program of the Marine Corps League. Founded in 1958 to promote the mental, moral and physical development of young Americans, the Young Marines offer a variety of activities specifically designed to develop greater self-esteem, discipline and self-confidence in its members.
Character building is one of the most important objectives of the Young Marine program, and all of its activities emphasize the importance of honesty, courage, respect, loyalty, dependability, and a sense of devotion to God, country, community and family.
In July of 1993, the United States Marine Corps officially designated the Young Marines program as “the focal organization for fulfilling its participation in the Department of Defense’s drug demand reduction activities.”
Young Marines make a pledge to maintain a drug free lifestyle and are encouraged to influence family, friends, and schoolmates to share this commitment.
