Annual Reunions
Each year, the Wolfhound Pack gathers to meet with old friends and make new ones. At each reunion, there are several Wolfhounds who meet someone they served with. All past and present Wolfhounds are welcome, as well as spouses and family members. Spouses and family members of Wolfhound in the Sky are also very welcome. Our reunions are rotated in different cities are around the county to give everyone an opportunity to attend.

Holy Family Home
Since 1949, the Wolfhounds have supported the Holy Family Orphanage in Osaka, Japan.
