The Army & Navy Club of Grand Rapids, Michigan, is a non-profit veterans association founded on love of country and dedicated to maintaining a strong national defense and ensuring that our nation keeps its commitments to currently serving, retired, and former members of the uniformed services and their families and survivors. We seek to foster fraternal relations among our members and families and also support our community and our nation. We are also a local chapter of the Military Officers Association of America (MOAA). The purposes of the Club have been consistent through the years: (1) To become more informed and to encourage participation in matters of national affairs, national preparedness and military effectiveness. (2) To help further the interest of our Armed Forces in our community. (3) To further implement the cooperation, harmony and understanding of all the elements of our Armed Forces in the National Defense Program. (4) To cooperate with others with like objectives.

Membership in the Army and Navy Club of Grand Rapids is open to those who hold or have ever held a commission or warrant in any component of the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, Air Force, Space Force, Coast Guard, Public Health Service, or National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, as well as their surviving spouses. 

The Army and Navy Club of Grand Rapids, Michigan, was formed in 1921. It welcomed officers and former officers of all the uniformed services as well as their spouses, significant others and surviving spouses. It was incorporated as a Michigan corporation in 1946 and it affiliated as a chapter of the Military Officers Association of America (MOAA) in 1995 (then known as TROA (The Retired Officers Association). We are chapter MI05. In 1921, the "War to End all Wars" had been over for almost three years. Things in the country were getting back to a normal routine. It was during this time that a group of socially minded officers, reservists, former officers and concerned patriots formed the Army & Navy Club of Grand Rapids. 

Four Club dinner meetings are held each year, usually in April/May, July, September/October, and December. Locations vary and specific information is in the newsletter. Regular Board of Directors meetings are open to all members and are held about five times per year at the Walker Army Reserve Center (3870 - 3 Mile Road, Grand Rapids MI 49534).   Newsletter

Dues are $20 per year ($10 for surviving spouses).   Dues can be paid online.
