The Single Marine Program (SMP) is part of the MCCS quality-of-life and recreation system. Programs often focus on creating opportunities for service members to connect, contribute to the community, and take part in local activities. Participation rules and the mix of activities vary by installation.

Start here: three practical steps

  1. Find the Single Marine Program page on your official installation website.
  2. Review the upcoming calendar and the eligibility criteria for individual events.
  3. Contact the local coordinator about registration requirements, volunteering, or quality-of-life feedback.

Common program activities

Depending on installation, SMP calendars can include outdoor trips, recreation events, community service, and skills-building activities. Some opportunities have capacity limits or required forms.

A voice in the community

SMP is also a channel for eligible Marines to surface quality-of-life concerns and make suggestions about programs and facilities. Contact the installation’s coordinator for the current process.

A note on eligibility

Do not assume an event is open to everyone with base access. Some local activities are intended for particular groups, such as single or unaccompanied active-duty service members. Always read the official event description.

Verify with the official program office.
