  The 2026 Commodore's Ball will be held at Stanley Hall in New Bern again this year on Saturday, November 7th. 

  The Hall, caterer, bartender (Sassy Spirits) and band (Southern Hellcats) have all been booked early to insure that we can hold the Ball in November.

   

  IMPORTANT: The reason for this early announcement is the possibility of the Navy Ball occurring on the same weekend, which will cause competition for staying overnight in New Bern! You are urged to book accommodations NOW if you are planning on attending and spending the night in New Bern following the Ball. If you are not sure of your plans this far in advance but think attending the Ball is a strong possibility, book a fully refundable accommodation to guarantee you will have a room if you do decide to attend.

   

  Note: Registration for the Commodore’s Ball is not open at this time. Registration and additional details about the Ball will be added in the Fall.
