Celebrate Where It All Began

Comments

A 150th anniversary is a time to celebrate! Throughout 2023, the Naval Institute is taking every opportunity to mark this milestone at conferences and events, in the pages of our magazines and books—even our stationery and email messages sport a distinctive 150th logo. The capstone of this yearlong celebration will be a signature event held on the Naval Academy Yard in Annapolis—where the Institute was founded—on the exact anniversary of the day.  

Please join us for this special one-time-only evening of fine food and drink, live entertainment, fireworks, and camaraderie on Monday, 9 October 2023, at the Jack C. Taylor Conference Center.  Tickets are required (a portion of the cost is eligible as a tax-deductible donation). Proceeds from the event will be used to build the 150th Power of Resiliency Fund, strengthening the Naval Institute’s ability to manage increasing costs, weather economic downturns, and provide mission-critical support for key programs and initiatives. Information about purchasing tickets and sponsorship opportunities is available at 150celebration.usni.org.

Come raise a glass to your Naval Institute on 9 October!

Join the Leaders!
