Anne Arundel Young Marines drills (meets) every other Sunday afternoon. We include a wide range of activities from close order drill (marching), physical fitness, classes on leadership and drug education, fun games, and team building exercises.
Many of the events are led by the Young Marines themselves under the close supervision of our adult volunteers.
Community Service
Veterans Appreciation
Community Service
Youth participation in community service fosters a sense of responsibility and self-awareness. It equips our Young Marines with practical skills such as teamwork and problem solving. Empowering our youth to give back instills a lifelong commitment to service and encourages them to take ownership of their communities to become better citizens.
