Honoring our Firsties and their families (Zoom)

IMG_1019.jpeg

NJ Parents Club has long recognized the importance of transition from USNA to the fleet, squadron, or next assignment with a Spring Recognition Dinner. This year we are pleased to continue the tradition and spotlight your midshipman and the celebration of transition. Our Zoom program will be on the evening of April 24th at 6:30 p.m.

The program will include an address by the club president, a short business meeting, and a keynote speakers who will point to the changes at hand for our sons and daughters. Then the light will turn to the graduates who will get a few minutes to share their reflections on "Four Years by the Bay" and perhaps comment on family support. Each Firsty parent will get a moment in the sun to reflect on the journey past, and upcoming, and to extend well-wishes. These heartfelt moments are a wonderful time to share perspectives.
