The Mission of the Marine Corps League
The Marine Corps League Mission Statement: Members of the Marine Corps League join together in camaraderie and fellowship for the purpose of preserving the traditions and promoting the interests of the United States Marine Corps and those who have been honorably discharge from that service; voluntarily aiding and rendering assistance to all Marines and former Marines and to their widows and orphans, and by perpetuating the history of the United States Marine Corps through fitting acts to observe the anniversaries of historical occasions of particular interest to Marines.
What We Do
The Longhorn Detachment is involved in many community service events throughout the year. Some examples of our projects are collecting for Toys for Tots, the Jarhead Jam back to school supplies drive, and our WheelChairs4Kids annual golf tournament fund raiser.
Scouting
The Longhorn Detachment is the Charter Sponsor Organization for the Scouts of Crowley, Texas
Jarhead Jam - Back to School Drive
This annual drive delivers needed school supplies to children in school districts in our surrounding communities such as Burleson, Crowley, and Joshua ISDs.
Annual Rifle and Pistol Raffle
We raffle off a rifle and pistol every year during the Marine Corps Birthday. The last few years, the drawing was held at the HOP FUSION ALE WORKS ANNUAL MARINE CORPS BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION.
WheelChairs4Kids Annual Golf Tournament
Supporting WheelChairs4Kids.org, this event is very rewarding and we cannot thank our community enough for the great involvement and generous participation in this annual fundraiser.
