ANCC FOUNDATION DID YOU KNOW? Columbus Country Club The newly formed Army, Navy and Marine Corps Country Club considered four sites for their campus before settling on the “Columbus Country Club” site in Arlington County, Virginia. Over the years various magazine and newspaper stories about the origins of Army Navy Country Club have not accurately portrayed the origins, ownership, and activities of the Columbus Country Club. To learn the truth, click here. The “In Memoriam” section of the Army Navy Country Club website highlights the lives of Members and staff who have recently passed. If you would like to send a submission to honor the memory of a loved one, please contact our Marketing Coordinator by clicking here. You may send a biography, along with photos as well to be added to this section. To read about the lives of those who have recently passed, please click here. InMemoriam
