"Hey, did you guys hear something?" 🤷‍♂️💥

Just another casual day at the office for our Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) Soldiers.

Shoutout to the EOD Soldiers from the Michigan, Washington, and California National Guard for literally bringing the heat to Camp Grayling during their training!

Another great NGAM Legends & Leaders Golf Outing is in the books! This outing raises thousands of dollars a year for NGAM members and their families. Feel free to post any pictures you had from today. Thank you to all of our sponsors, but a special shout out to the amazing teams at Daughters of the American Revolution and Helmets to Hard Hats! We couldn't do what we do without your support!

NGAM is excited for this partnership! A lot of great opportunities ahead with our organizations working together to both strengthen the Grayling community and the Michigan National Guard!

Yesterday, the Grayling Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors & Ambassadors were thrilled to accept a $15,000 donation from NEW members, the National Guard Association of Michigan- NGAM to support our community's fireworks celebrations as America approaches its 250th anniversary!

This incredible gift, raised through the Kentucky Derby Gala fundraiser hosted at Camp Grayling Joint Maneuver Training Center, will help power Grayling's fireworks not just this year, but for the next THREE years! 💥

With our community's strong connection to Camp Grayling and the many military families who call our region home, we look forward to building a meaningful partnership alongside NGAM to support those who serve.

Thank you, NGAM, for investing in our community, our celebrations, and our future. We can't wait to light up the skies together! ✨

🟩 THE GREEN FLAG HAS DROPPED! 🟩

The Race to Daytona has officially begun!

Today marks the start of the EANGUS Membership Drive, where every new member recruited earns ONE LAP for their State Association in the race toward the checkered flag at the 2026 EANGUS Conference in Daytona Beach.

But this race is about much more than bragging rights...but tbh, the winner's trophy is pretty cool 🏆

Membership is the fuel that powers EANGUS. Every member strengthens our voice on Capitol Hill, increases our influence with military leaders, and helps us fight for the benefits, programs, and resources that impact National Guard members, retirees, veterans, and military families.

A great example is H.R. 8848, legislation championed by EANGUS to officially recognize the National Guard Relief Foundation as a Military Welfare Society. This designation would place the National Guard community alongside other military components with an officially recognized relief organization, expanding support and assistance available to Guardsmen and their families during times of hardship.

Legislative victories don't happen by accident. They happen because EANGUS members stand together with a unified voice.

🏁 Every new member strengthens our mission.
🏁 Every recruit expands our influence.
🏁 Every lap moves your State closer to victory.

So challenge a friend, recruit a fellow Guardsman, engage your unit, and help your State take the lead.

The green flag is out.
The race is on.
Who will take the checkered flag in Daytona?

NGAM was proud to sponsor the families of deployed National Guard service members for a wonderful Paint & Sip event at Youngblood Vineyard. Many talented ladies in this group. We’re glad they could enjoy a little time for themselves. We appreciate CSM Russell attending the lunch on this special weekend to show them support from the Michigan National Guard leadership. 🇺🇸
