Benefits of Membership

2005 Member Benefits

NY Council Benefits

The New York Council affords its approximately 2,000 members many ways of supporting the sea services.  Members can attend luncheons and receptions where senior military officers speak on topics of interest.  There are opportunities for special tours of Navy and Coast Guard ships.  Members also receive The Log, the Council’s publication, which reports on the sea services from a New York perspective.  Thus, members have the opportunity to learn about today’s sea services and to interact with those who are serving today.
