Lewis & Clark Young Marines has moved their offices and drill location to 11605 SE McGillivray Blvd, Vancouver, WA 98683 the home of the Vancouver Elks BPOE 823. The Elks were generous and gracious in offering our large unit a place to call home when our former location was sold and the new owners were planning a massive renovation. We would like to thank Safe Harbor Church for their many years of hospitality.
Starting Nov 2, 2017 all unit activities will be conducted at this new location. It will be business as usual, but we ask for your patience as we unpack and get organized.
