Welcome to the New York Tri-State Chapter!
Welcome!
We express our gratitude for visiting the Craig Newmark New York Tri-State Chapter Neighborhood. We're delighted to have you here! You reside in an area brimming with culture, arts, and entertainment, and we're committed to offering you numerous distinctive opportunities to connect with your diverse community.
From exploring the National Museum of the American Indian to discovering the beautiful gardens at the Brooklyn Botanic Gardens, from enjoying a Broadway play to embarking on a scenic sunset cruise along the St. Lawrence River to explore the Thousand Islands, you can immerse yourself in a variety of experiences.
Growing up in a military family with both my parents serving in the US Marine Corps and my husband serving in the US Navy, I've become well-acquainted with the concept of adaptability and change. Having lived in various communities, I understand the profound need to establish connections within one's community. I'm deeply passionate about ensuring that our military families feel warmly embraced by their new communities.
I'm thrilled to introduce you to our Blue Star Families programs, and like you, I'm eager to partake in the joyful experiences that await us.
To keep yourself informed about upcoming meet-ups, please visit our community's event listings here. If you're interested in contributing to our community, I strongly encourage you to consider volunteering with us.
Always keep in mind that this Chapter is yours. Don't hesitate to reach out anytime with your ideas, suggestions, or opportunities for how we, as a community, can provide the best support for you.
We look forward to welcoming you!
