2012 MEMBERSHIP RENEWALS ARE NOW DUE!

2012 Membership Renewals are due as of January 1st, 2012. Membership renewals have been very slow coming in. Our Chapter by-laws allow for 60 days of grace period after the new year for renewals.  When that time is up, non-renewals will have to be dropped from our membership roster. Please use the Chapter membership form to renew your Chapter membership, and enclose a check for $15. Please remember that membership in the 1st Marine Division Association needs to be current as well!  Association membership fees have been increased to $35 per year as of 2011. You may renew your membership by completing the Association membership form or by calling June at the Association office in Oceanside, CA at 760.967.8561.



A Tribute to the Corps



All Annual Memberships in our
Central Florida Chapter Expire December 31

Unless you have joined as a LIFE MEMBER of the Central Florida Chapter, your membership expires at the end of each year and will need to be renewed for the next year. Our Chapter By-laws allow 60 days of "grace period" after the beginning of the new year, but we would like to receive your membership renewal before having to send you a written reminder.

IMPORTANT :: Please make sure that your membership in the 1st Marine Division Association is current. It was discovered recently that several of our current members had not joined the Association. If you are not a member in good standing of the 1st Marine Division Association, you cannot be eligible to be a Regular Member of the Central Florida Chapter!


Meetings feature programs and speakers of interest to Marines and other military veterans, followed by an optional lunch and good old fashioned Marine fellowship and esprit de Corps.
