The Warrior Alliance has announced a partnership with Cobb Community Foundation to support Navy Week Atlanta, a week-long series of entertainment events, U.S. Navy displays and community projects through Nov. 6.
Navy Week Atlanta brings Sailors from across the fleet to the area to emphasize the importance of the Navy to Atlanta, the state of Georgia and the nation. The week will conclude with a two-day performance by the Navy Flight Demonstration Team, The Blue Angels, at the Atlanta Air Show. Participating Navy organizations include Sailors from Naval Reserve Center Atlanta, USS Constitution, Office of Small Business Programs, Navy Talent Acquisition Group Atlanta, Naval History & Heritage Command, Navy Band Southeast, U.S. Naval Academy, Explosive Ordnance Disposal Group 2, U.S. Navy Ceremonial Guard, Navy Flight Demonstration Squadron, Naval Meteorology Command, U.S. Navy Parachute Team, Helicopter Maritime Strike Squadron 72, Strike Fighter Squadron 11 and U.S. Fleet Forces.
As part of the events, Nov. 2 has been designated as Navy Day of Service in Cobb County which will involve Sailors and volunteers performing a variety of community-based activities to include area high school demonstrations, elementary school crafts, food packing, furniture assembly and local beautification projects. Cobb Community Foundation and The Warrior Alliance are working together to coordinate the program with assistance from the U.S. Navy Office of Community Outreach.
