Everyone will receive vouchers for chips when they check in. We are working on getting prizes donated for the winners! More details about Little Vegas to come!

Welcome Home Celebration Attire

Ladies: From dressy casual to cocktail.
Fella's: Just show up!

We will have a photographer there doing portraits for each soldier, so keep this in mind when picking out your wardrobe. Many of the girls want an excuse to dress up, so they are wearing cocktail dresses, while others are wearing slacks. The only way we'll turn you away at the door is if you are naked.
