Event overview

This event is in collaboration with Operation Homefront, H-E-B, American Veterans Mission, and the National Mounted Warfare Museum. The Star-Spangled Babies program provides baby showers to expectant moms in growing military families. Due to deployments and frequent relocation, military parents-to-be often live far from their extended families and support systems. Moreover, like many new parents, they have questions, concerns, and fears. This program provides these new and expectant parents with baby care items, early childhood education tips at in-person events, and a support system when loved ones are far away. As volunteers, we will be at the venue at 0900 to set up. The public event opens up to parents/expectant parents at 1300. The public event ends at 1600, with tear-down and cleanup following until 1700 or until completed. Please note that we serve as the volunteer force of this event, and the program participants must be pre-registered with Operation Homefront to access the venue at 1300 hours.
