The 10th annual Armed Forces Day (AFD) will be held rain or shine on Saturday, May 21, 2011, on Harrisburg's City Island.
As the culmination of a week long celebration of the our Central Pennsylvania military and civilians, AFD is a unique FREE, fun-filled, family event that transforms City Island into a sprawling military base for the day.
AFD features an extensive array of military displays, exhibitions, information booths, musical guests, living history demonstrations, and family and children's activities.
Join me as I help kick off the Sound Off for Vets concert series. All proceeds go to the Wounded Warrior Project! There will be food, fun, and activities for all ages!
About Me
- Dawn Hicks
- Hanover, Pennsylvania
- My husband Todd and I have been together 11 years and married for 6. My father, a retired Army Colonel inspired me to enlist in the military at 19 and I am a proud Gulf War veteran having served 9 years in the Air Force. In 2002 I left the military life and we planted our roots in Hanover, Pennsylvania. These days I'm still working for the Department of Defense as a civilian and spent 6 months of 2010 deployed to Afghanistan in support of Operation Enduring Freedom. As someone who grew up in a military family, served in the military, and continues to work closely with the military, I understand how critical a strong support system can be. That is why we as a family put our full support behind the Armed Forces Foundation, a non-profit organization that provides comfort and support to our military community when they need it most. www.armedforcesfoundation.org.
