Free Military Family Event!

Woohoo for our military families!

What might I be talking about? I am referring to the upcoming 8th Annual Operation Appreciation on Saturday May 16th at the Oceanside Pier Amphitheater.

Operation Appreciation is Oceanside's way of saying THANK YOU to all of our military and their dependents.

I would like to invite all active duty military and their families to come down to the Oceanside Pier Amphitheater for a free lunch (we are talking delicious tri-tip sandwiches and the works), free carnival rides, face painting, kids activities, meeting your favorite San Diego Characters like Baby Shamu and the Pad Squad, running around on the beach with super cool military displays, and chowing down while watching entertainment on stage. Oh, did I mention all the fabulous sponsors who will be giving away free goodies and letting the military know about wonderful opportunities they have for them?

The festivities begin at 11 am, with food service going from 11:30 am - 2:30 pm. The children's area is open from 11 am - 5:00 pm.

What do you need to bring? Just an active duty military ID and you are set for a day of free fun down at the beach.

Can the public come too? Why yes of course! If you want to come down and show your support, their will be food available for purchase and you can purchase a wristband for unlimited rides for your kiddies too.

See you at the Beach at Operation Appreciation!
