Photos of Thursday’s events are now posted. Click on the link to the right.

The Marine Corps League in conjunction with various other organizations and businesses are collaboratively creating a hospitality room at the Oneida County Airport under the direction of Million Air, Inc. The concept is simple, give back something to our troops who have sacrificed so much for our great nation. Eventually a permanent hospitality room will be established at Griffiss Park that will provide a respite for troops in transit to various parts of the world. They will be provided with refreshments and a place to rest, watch TV, or just read. This could not be done without the support of community organizations, businesses, and individual citizens. Support for this project has been overwhelming by the community - and the Rome Marines want to thank the great citizens of Rome and the surrounding communities for there outpouring of help and encouragement.


Thank you Romans for your incredible support!



Bon Voyage to our military men and women

May the road rise to meet you May the wind be always at your back The sun shine warm upon your face The rains fall soft upon your fields And until we meet again, May God hold you in the hollow of his hand.
