Aberdeen Proving Grounds soldiers and civilians engage military youth during Military Day at Operation Purple’s Northbay adventure camp in Elk Neck State Park, Northeast, Maryland on Aug. 16, 2016. Maj. Gen. Linda L. Singh, Adjutant General of Maryland speaks to the children about the challenges and sacrifices military families endure.
The Northbay adventure camp offers a free week of camp for military children ages 9 to 12. The children with a parent who recently deployed or has a service related illness or injury post 9/11 have priority. Soldiers and civilians set up stations with fun military related activities for the children to cycle through. Activities include a red, white and blue color run, a tour of a military helicopter and a lesson on how to cook and eat a meal, ready to eat. Supporting units in the event include the 20th Chemical Biological Radiological and Nuclear Command, the Army Test and Evaluation Command, Edgewood Chemical and Biological Center, A-3 Air Defense Artillery and U.S. Army Garrison Aberdeen Proving Grounds.
