Our Fall BBQ at Port 5 was a resounding success! 

We had 40 attendees – Our MOST EVER!

The weather was fabulous and the entire event took place on the scenic deck overlooking Long Island Sound. 

Our guest speaker, Tara Carr, LTC, USA (Ret), gave a fascinating account of her career and some thoughts about leadership and the future of our local communities.  She was just elected the new First Selectman of Brookfield, displacing the incumbent!  Good luck Tara!

2022 YAA Program

The WCMOA  Young American Awards Program RETURNS in 2022!!   This will be our 46th year promoting leadership and patriotism in Fairfield County high school graduates.  As you know, the program is built around genuine contact with the awardees, school counselors and administration, and student parents and we look forward to this year’s event.  Stay informed of this year’s event here on our Website.  We will resume our normal YAA schedule with a kickoff meeting of the YAA committee and all school liaisons in January.  The program culminates with our “dining out” style military banquet at a spectacular local venue.  All are welcome to participate in the rewarding event! Drop an email to this year’s YAA Chairman, Lt Col John Simonetti at and become a part of our annual signature event!
