A private gala event will be held at Cielos on Nov. 8, 2025, to celebrate the 250th birthday of the United States Marine Corps.
The evening will honor Marine Corps traditions with dinner, camaraderie, and recognition of service, offering the community a formal way to mark this historic milestone.
“It’s the closest thing to a real Marine Corps Ball and formal attire is required but I will not turn away a Marine or vet for not having formal attire, as long as they have a neat appearance,” said event organiser and Veteran, Richard McIntire.
Tickets for the gala include a full dinner with a choice of Roasted Salmon, Pecan-Crusted Chicken, or Lemon & Garlic Shrimp Pasta, along with two alcoholic beverages and cake.
A cake-cutting ceremony will take place, following Marine Corps tradition, and the Commandant’s Message will be played.
The event starts at 5 p.m. on Nov. 8 and tickets are $75.
