Event Description

Navy Week is coming to San Antonio from April 15th to the 25th!



To give you a little background on Navy Weeks, they are set up by the US Navy with the intent to reach out to cities all over the nation and give residents a chance to learn about the Navy. To allow people a good look into the diverse roles available in the Navy, these weeklong celebrations can include:
- Performances by the Navy Leap Frog Parachute Team and the Blue Angels
- Dive demonstrations and dive tanks
- SEAL fitness challenges
- Navy rock and ceremonial bands
- Flight and other interactive simulators
- Appearances by Admirals, divers and sailors
- Community service projects
- Events with local sporting teams
- Much more!

Rear Adm. Albert Garcia, III Civil Engineer Corps Deputy Commander, Naval Facilities Engineering Command Deputy Chief of Civil Engineers, and Rear Adm. Robin L. Graf, Deputy Commander, Navy Recruiting Command, will serve as our leading spokespeople. Also participating are Sailors with significant ties to the local area.

N4M is not sponsoring this event, but if you're interested in coordinating something special with fellow N4M members, here are some Do's and Don'ts to keep in mind :)





DO get involved with Navy Weeks.
- You are encouraged to participate in Navy Week activities when appropriate.
- If you want to get involved with the Navy coordinators, your group should appoint a "spokesperson" to coordinate with the Navy. (This will alleviate multiple calls on the same topic.). The Navy Week points of contact can be found on www.navyweek.org. Go to the schedule and click on the city that you are interest in. The point of contact for that city's Navy Week will be listed.

DO NOT independently contact the flag officers or VIP participants involved in your town's Navy Week, but do work through the appointed Navy Week points of contact listed on www.navyweek.org

I am a DEPer and we had a big DEP meeting today. Admiral Graf was in attendance since she is here for Navy Week and I took the opportunity to speak with her about my future in the navy. I was told that some people go years or their entire Naval career without ever meeting an Admiral and so I took the opportunity to do so since she was there and more accessible than she may ever be. I just walked right up to her and introduced myself. She is a wonderful person and gave me all the encouragement in the world. I really appreciated meeting her. Just thought I would share.

I'm going to be in San Antonio just to visit my son. What's going on that we can show up to? I'll be wearing my Navy Mom t-shirts for sure!
