NORTH BAY COAST GUARD SPOUSES CLUB
Make a Difference Today
WHO WE ARE
The NBCGSC is a non-profit association that is open to spouses and family members of all ranks, services, active duty, retired, reserve and auxiliary military personnel in the greater North Bay area. We aim to give back to our local community while providing great resources and support for our military families. We have a sister club in Alameda, CA known as the East Bay Coast Guard Spouses Club. We have a sister club in San Francisco/East Bay (EBCGSC)

WHAT WE DO
The North Bay Coast Guard Spouses Club strives to be a community spouses club of many attributes. A place to meet new people and make new friends outside of your unit, a group that provides fun events and great support to all spouses, a way of keeping Coast Guard traditions alive and also an avenue to reach out to our community and assist others. Our hope is that you can find these things in our club if you decide to become a new member.
​
We welcome all spouses of the North Bay Community. Officer, enlisted, retired, civilian, male or female; all are welcome! You will always find a friendly face and warm welcome when you attend a club activity.
​
The Club is a group of spouses who try to meet regularly for a variety of events, raise funds for scholarships and volunteer in our community. Our goal as a club is to be a way for spouses to meet and get to know each other while participating in fun group activities.
The North Bay Coast Guard Spouses Club is organized by a board of members and operates under a set of bylaws that the group votes on and approves. Everything done by the club is governed by the rules that we make for ourselves. The club collects a yearly membership dues of $20 and will occasionally have fees to some of our events/activities. The dues and fees, which vary, help the club operate and fund whatever charitable work we take on.
​
If you're new to the Novato/Petaluma Area, you know that meeting people can feel impossible. And if you've been here for a long time but just watched everyone you know PCS, you're probably feeling lonely.
We hope that the spouse club could be the perfect solution to your friendship woes or if you just need to break up the monotony of life. Please email the club with your questions at nbcgspousesclub@gmail.com
WAYS WE HELP
Supporting Military Families
SUNSHINE COMMITTEE
We love to celebrate new additions to our Coast Guard community. We provide baskets filled with items such as diapers/wipes, onesies, bottles and more. Just a little something to congratulate new parents.
​
Sometimes we find our community members in need of some comfort. Our Sunshine Committee also provides meal-trains, gift cards, letters of encouragement and in person visits to those who may need it.
SCHOLARSHIPS
One of our greatest contributions is through our scholarship program. We give our community children a chance to earn some financial help with their extra curricular activities. We also help adults with college and trade school costs when they apply and receive a scholarship.
MORALE EVENTS
Our active duty spouses already take on so much, and their families are often left behind to continue to hold down the fort. Our club makes sure that our families are feeling at home with traditional holiday events, clubs and activities and feeling welcome in our neighborhood.
