Welcome to the NAIL website

 

 

The Netherlands America Institute Limburg (NAIL) is an independent organization that promotes relations between citizens of the Netherlands, the United States of America and other nations. It is focused on the province of Limburg. It was founded in 1952 and remains strong to this day thanks to the special bond between Limburg and the USA since the liberation in 1944-1945, where the USA played a central role, and thanks to the strong ties resulting from the NATO and US military presence in the region.

 

The NAIL is a non-political organization and most members are, or have been, part of military and/or civilian national and/or international entities. Today, the NAIL has circa 300 members comprising American, Belgian, British, Dutch, German, Irish, Italian and Spanish nationals and it maintains good relations with similar organizations.

 

The NAIL is a platform facilitating people to connect, to identify synergies and to establish networks resulting in mutual understanding and appreciation. This platform generates a wide range of activities. Major NAIL events are the annual Memorial Eve gathering and participation in Memorial Day Services the following Day, and the celebration of the birthday of the Netherlands King, Willem-Alexander. Other activities include themed dinner & dance events, beer calls, meetings, visits to local breweries, international organizations such as EUROCONTROL and European Institutions such as the EU Parliament & Commission, historic sites and museums.
