join us for our 123rd Anniversary celebration
The New York Council Navy League invites you to join us for a memorable evening on the water as we celebrate our 123rd Anniversary and ongoing legacy of support for the sea services.
Step aboard the Hornblower Atlantica at Chelsea Piers, Pier 61 on Thursday, November 20, 2025. Boarding begins at 6:30 PM, with sailing promptly at 7:00 PM. Enjoy an elegant night as we recognize our deserving honorees, complete with spectacular views, dining, and celebration. All while supporting our three-part mission and allowing us to continue the work in 2026.
CONTINUING OUR LEGACY OF SUPPORT

Funds raised from our Anniversary Dinners go toward new and developing programs that educate the public and our elected leaders on the importance of the sea services, foster youth leadership development and, most importantly, support sea service personnel, their families and their units. We’re financially independent from our national organization, so money given locally is used locally. 2026 initiatives will include:
Financial and mentorship support of more than 2,000 local JROTC cadets, Sea Cadets and Young Marines
Morale events throughout the year for local and visiting military units, including Fleet Week New York
Advocacy with elected officials for sea service priorities
Public education on national security issues, including the 4th Annual Maritime Security Conference
THANK YOU TO OUR 2025 anniversary SPONSORS FOR THEIR GENEROUS CONTRIBUTIONS.
Thank you to our table sponsors, dinner journal advertisers and auction donors, whose generosity provided crucial funding for our fleet support, education & advocacy, and youth programs. And thank you to our volunteers and guests who made the night a success. We look forward to welcoming you again next year.
