The USO Midwest Region is excited to celebrate Month of the Military Child!
The “Make your mark as a military child” Project.
All month of April starting April 5, 2023, at the Holiday CELEBRATION event WE will begin an ongoing project that allows our amazing military children to come and be a part of something beautiful which will hang in the USO Great Lakes Center. This piece will be enjoyed by everyone here now, and the ones to come!
**Registration is preferred, or just swing by at any time were open
