🛼✨ FAMILY, FUN & FELLOWSHIP! ✨🛼

Our JPSO Young Marines Family Skate Night was a great way to bring our Young Marines, parents, siblings, and staff together for an evening of fun at Airline Skate Center! ❤️💙

It was wonderful seeing everyone enjoying themselves, making memories, and building friendships outside of our regular drills.

A special THANK YOU to all the families who came out and continue to support our Young Marines Program!

📸 Check out some of our favorite moments from the night!

Yesterday, the JPSO Young Marines were honored to receive an official proclamation recognizing our dedication and commitment to improving Jefferson Parish! ❤️🤍💙

We are incredibly grateful to Jefferson Parish, the Jefferson Parish Council, and the Jefferson Parish Administration for this special recognition and for their continued support of our program and the young people we serve.

Being recognized as the 2026 Unit of the Year is an accomplishment we are extremely proud of, but moments like this remind us that our impact goes far beyond awards. Our mission continues through leadership, citizenship, teamwork, self-discipline, service, and making a positive difference in our community.
