I am from the Grand Rapids Area as I previously mentioned.
There are some great schools throughout Michigan--dependig on what you are looking for. There are also some great Marine oraganizations ;)

I am not in the position to rejoin. Not sure I would anymore if I could. Politics of the current admin are not anything I am fond of. My brothers and sisters in arms I support all the way. I serve now in other ways. If there are any of you out there who are no longer serving in arms, you may want to consider the League. We monthly do food distributions for the needy as well as assisting homeless vets. I work every Sunday on a dimentia unit at the Home for Vets, supervising delinquent youth interactions. The kids play games like dominos or "war" or just talk with the guys. Its great.

As far as the MA go, if you are ever in Grand Rapids or its nearby cities and dont mind making the trip in we have two of the best CMA instructors around. Master Lee is arguably the best Praying Mantis guy in the US,http://www.sifulee.com and possibly the foremost expert in Taiji Tanglang in the world. Sifu Chan is no slouch either, a Wing Chun and Jow Ga master, his school teaches San Shou as well.http://http://www.chanskungfu.com/school.htm

I have learned from Sensei Ernest Estrada--a remarkable source of knowledge in all things Shorin Ryu, just a fabulous teacher that I look foreword to doing more with. http://www.renbukan.timsdomain.com/contact.htm

In the SE part of the state, I have trained and maintained a longtime friendship with Grandmaster David Zacker of the Tang Soo Do Martial Arts Society and would refer interested parties to his website http://www.michigantsd.com or another great resourse for Tang Soo Do, Okinawan weapons and Modern Arnis is Master Bill BArker, unfortunately his site is down at the moment.

There is a fabulous Arnis instructor out of Holland, and numerous other resources.

Any ??? on any of this stuff in Michigan pleasse let me know, I have a pretty good network between Cadillac, Kalamazoo, Holland and Detroit.

Peace.
