If you have any bags of bottles laying around that you have no desire to return, bring them to the Young Marines at the VFW tonight and we will gladly return them to help fund our trip to Washington D.C!

Help us get to Washington, D.C. this summer! 🇺🇸

The Monroe County Young Marines are hosting a bottle drive fundraiser all month long in May, and we need your support! Every can and bottle donated helps our youth earn their way to an unforgettable, educational trip to our nation’s capital.

Check out the attached flyer for all drop-off and pick-up details, and start saving those cans and bottles—it all adds up!

Another busy and rewarding Saturday for the Monroe County Young Marines!

Our Young Marines started the day by assisting the Monroe Marine Corps League Detachment #157 with their SOS Breakfast fundraiser. We are incredibly grateful to have received a generous donation toward our upcoming Washington, D.C. trip while serving at the breakfast—thank you Ladeana and Tony for your support!

Afterward, our unit teamed up with the Corl-Gaynier AMVETS Post 1942 for an Adopt-A-Road cleanup, helping keep our community clean and giving back in a hands-on way.

We’re proud of these young leaders for their hard work, teamwork, and commitment to service! 💪
