ARMY NAVY COUNTRY CLUB SEPTEMBER 2021 E-NEWSLETTER

ANCC FOUNDATION DID YOU KNOW? Fresh Air While individual reasons for joining a country club vary, the most cited reasons are social activities such as dining and dancing; recreational activities in the form of tennis, golf, and swimming; and access to clean, fresh air. In the early days of Army, Navy and Marine Corps Country Club the “clean, fresh air” description was not necessarily valid. To learn more about the realities of the ANCC’s early years, 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
