MILITARY APPRECIATION DAY 2022 - SOUTHPORT
September 10, 2022
Update: Although rainy weather was a potential problem, the day worked out. Approximately 120 of our active duty military heroes were treated to a day of fishing, lunch/dinner and prizes. Our Post’s commander, Mike Trent, took two service members on his boat, and he was assisted by member and first mate-for-the-day, Sal Simonetti. Photos from the day are below.

MILITARY APPRECIATION DAY 2022 - SOUTHPORT
September 10, 2022
On September 10, 2022, MAD will host our Nation’s heroes from Camp Lejeune, Fort Bragg and other areas to a day of fishing, food and fun. Everything is totally free of charge to Active Duty, Guard and Reservists.
Fishermen with Boats and Charter Captains: MAD 2022 needs your help!
More boats = more troops they can serve!
Boats will depart and return from Safe Harbor South Harbour Village Marina at the end of Fish Factory Road. Friday’s captains’ dinner and Saturday’s dinner following a day of fishing will take place at Dutchman Creek Park on Fish Factory Road.
Please consider volunteering your boat and your time to help provide a fun day on the water for these upstanding men and women by registering online:
