Local Membership

As a member of the Philadelphia Council, you can participate in programs and special activities which support the men and women of the sea services and provide information and programs to educate our community about the importance of sea power to our nation’s security and continued economic well being. We have adopted the USS Philadelphia and the Philadelphia Coast Guard Station, which give us an opportunity to provide direct, hands-on support to the men and women who work for our freedom. Other initiatives include local and national scholarship programs, support of our Sea Cadets, and sponsorship of other youth programs. In addition, you will receive our Council newsletter, our Council E-Mailgrams, and discounts to many Council sponsored events.

On a more personal note, membership in the Philadelphia Council will offer you a networking opportunity with military, community and business leaders. You will enjoy the camaraderie of our members as we work together to fulfill the mission of the Navy League, or simply enjoy each other’s company in different social settings.

You do not need prior service in the Navy (or any other branch) to become a member of the Navy League.

However, non-active-duty members (both prior-military and passionately interested civilians) and eligible for membership. All it takes is the desire to become part of an organization that is known as the nation’s watchdogs for the sea services and track issues regarding military preparedness, modernization, and all other matters relative to maintaining U.S. strength at sea. Members of the Navy League are also recognized for their integrity, patriotism, and community service, especially on the waterfront. Additionally, we conduct educational programs promoting a second-to-none sea service and support for the people who serve and their families. Although current active-duty personnel cannot become members, their spouses, family members, and inactive reservists are indeed invited to join.
