Army Navy Country Club June 2023 E-Newsletter
Secretary’s Message By Col D’Anne Spence, USAF, Ret.
The Army Navy Country Club Annual Meeting will be held on Monday, 2 October 2023 at the Arlington Clubhouse. At the meeting, we will elect Resident Members to the Board of Governors to serve for the period October 2023 to October 2026. Our By-Laws provide that only Resident Members may stand for election to the Board. At this year’s Annual Meeting, we are presently scheduled to elect 17 Governors. We will elect 7 Governors from those Resident Members who are on Active Duty or Selected Reserve Resident status. We will elect 10 Governors from those Resident Members who are in the All Others status. We will ensure that nomination forms are available in the Administration Office and on the Club’s website no later than Thursday, 1 June 2023. To ensure the publication of the nomination in the Annual Meeting Packet, we must receive the nomination no later than Friday, 7 July 2023. We will permit nominations from the floor at the Annual Meeting, but please advise me of any such notifications prior to the meeting so I can ensure the floor nomination is of a qualified Resident Member. The use of military rank for nomination and election purposes is permissible under Title 10 of the US Code. For example, an Active Duty army officer may identify herself in the form of “CPT Jane Doe, USA,” and a retired army officer may identify herself as “CPT Jane Doe, USA (Ret.). Former military officers may not use their former rank as a preface, but may use their highest wartime rank as follows: Ms. Jane Doe (CPT, USA). I strongly encourage those who are interested in serving on the Board of Governors to familiarize themselves with our By-Laws, Club Rules, and Organization Manual. I am available to answer any questions you might have about this process at danne.emmett.spence@gmail.com or by phone: (703) 835-4108.

ANCC FOUNDATION DID YOU KNOW?
1929 Army Golf Championship Army Navy Country Club opened its first nine holes of golf in September 1928 with the second nine following in the summer of 1929. In spite of the immaturity of the golf course, the Club was confident enough of the playing conditions to host the Army Golf Championship in September 1929.

Greetings from your Junior Activities Committee (JAC). We are initiating a “challenge activity” which will entail an off-site adventure challenge for individual or family members. As our inaugural event, we invite all interested members to follow JAC leaders, Col. Art White USMC (Ret.) and Lt Col. Eric Schnabel USA (Ret.), in climbing “Old Rag”, a 3,284 ft mountain less than 2 hours from our Arlington campus. The trek, which can take anywhere between 4.5 and 7 hours offers a challenging climb, but rewards climbers with amazing vistas of ancient forests, rugged mountains and open skies. Col. White and Lt Col. Schnabel completed the expeditionary climb in spring of 2022 and challenge members to do the same! There is no fixed date or club support for the climb. Participants are encouraged to assemble family members or ANCC friends to join together in a group endeavor. Climbers are encouraged to take photos during the journey and upon reaching the summit and submit the photo, group name and climb time via the ANCC webpage Junior Activities “Challenge Activity” link. Climbers will be recognized in a photo display and with a certificate! ANCC JUNIOR ACTIVITIES COMMITTEE SHENANDOAH CHALLENGE
