Dear Friends

On November 10, 2008 the U.S. Marine Corps will celebrate its 233rd birthday.  In recognition of the Marines who are, and have served our Country, we are sponsoring our Fifth Marine Appreciation Day to be held Saturday, July 12, 2008 at the Marine Monument, Fisherman's Park, River Road, North Tonawanda.

Sponsors of this auspicious event, include India Company, 3rd Battalion, 25th Marines, who recently returned from Iraq, Marine Corps Recruiters, the Marine Corps league, and the Navy Marine Veterans Association.  We invite all active, reserve, and veteran Marines to attend.

It is for this reason that we ask you, who support our military, to make a contribution, either in money or gifts, to help defray the expense of this day-long program.  Please contact me and we will arrange to pick up your donation at your convenience.
