The CNOA arranges social events for its members and guests during the year.
CNOA members meet monthly at the Royal School of Military Engineering, Brompton Barracks, Chatham in Kent where a varied programme of interesting lectures is arranged, followed by refreshments and fellowship.
Due to security considerations, it is essential that prospective members contact the CNOA Hon. Secretary before-hand so the necessary admin can be done and joining instructions can be provided.
We celebrate Christmas and New Year in December,
while an Annual Ladies and Guest Night in the summer provides an opportunity to welcome partners and guests to a formal but very enjoyable dinner.
Additional social events have included Garden Parties, meals at local restaurants and cross Channel trips.
Every year the CNOA creates a Wardroom in a historic Officers Mess where at a formal Naval dinner,
CNOA members, their partners and guests celebrate Nelson’s victory at the Battle of Trafalgar.
