Military Appreciation Week concludes with this picnic held from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at JBER- Richardson at Buckner Fitness Center fields. The Anchorage Chamber of Commerce works closely with USO Alaska and other organizations to provide a variety of fun, family-friendly activities during the picnic, such as competitive sporting events for the adults and face painting as well as bouncy houses for the kids.
Don’t miss performances by the USO Show Troupe and 9th Army Band.
This FREE event is four hours of food, music and fun for the entire family. Each year the Anchorage Chamber solicits nearly 100 volunteers to serve 4,000 local service members and their families.
