SAME Seattle Post - Holiday Social 2026

Fred Barker, President, Society of American Military Engineers Seattle Post and the Seattle Post Board cordially invite you to join them for the annual Holiday Social. We will again be joining forces with the United States Marine Corps' Toys for Tots, so please bring a new unwrapped toy or donate monetarily online! If the Marines are unable to attend due to impacts from the government shutdown, we will still be collecting toys at the event to support Toys for Tots. The company that brings the most toys will be specially recognized at the event by the Post President!
