ARMY PARTY!

Army Party!!!

This party would be so much fun outside, but alas, my son's birthday falls in January, so we rented a community center gym. It worked out perfectly for what we needed!


The OFFICIAL DRAFT notice!


The local armory donated some items including these neat bags, footballs, lanyards, and bracelets!


Treat bags had grendades, Army footballs, army laynards, whitstle, goarmy bracelet, binocular keychain, USA tootsie rolls, grenade water balloons, army men, and MREs (fruit roll ups).
I also made a cd for each child with army songs on it! We used some of them during the party

Certificates of Completion and Medals

Boot Camp Waiver

The dogtags everyone received with their names on them!

I was very proud of my signs!



Sign for the food table

Can't have an army party without a flag!
We did the Pledge of Allegiance and did the National Anthem!

The TANK cake! Camo inside!



Food table:
You cant really read the signs but one says "Great American Hotdogs" and the other is for "Sloppy Joes"

Cheese cubes with flag picks


Army mess hall tin plates!



Signing the bootcamp waiver! :)

At the recruiter table
Issue helmets and real dogtags with names engraved! (This took a long time for so neat!)
They also got army camo makeup if they wanted it.

Obstacle Course
1st station!
Belly crawl under the "barbed wire". I wish I had a better picture of the barbed wire. It is fake, but looks just like it!

Next station:

Then balance beam

Then over the climbing wall!!
