Hello,
Does anyone have an itinerary for the Corpus Christi Winging Ceremony on February 28, 2020? I am trying to schedule a lunch or dinner with family and would like to know the itinerary for the day.
Thanks

congratulations! Sorry I don’t have schedule information, my LO winged in Kingsville, not CC. I recall we came in the evening prior for a welcome mixer. The winging ceremony was on base the next afternoon followed by pictures. My husband and I hosted our family at a restaurant for dinner and then we attended the celebration party put on by the aviators after dinner. It’s a very special event, I was so proud of all those who winged, not only my LO. They have worked so hard and pushed through to reach this, it was an honor to witness their winging. Safe travels
Thank you! Yes, we are very proud and excited for our LO. You mentioned the celebration party put on by the aviators. My son mentioned that there would be a party but I thought it was just for the aviators. It would be fun to attend.
Thanks again for your response
Your son may have more info for you closer to the ceremony. Do make dinner reservations if you can- we had a group of family that came so we hosted dinner. We were the designated drivers for post-party, everyone is celebrating so nice to plan for that too!
congratulations Navy mom!
