Keeping them Rolling in 2024...
Camp Howze MVPA had an extremely good trip to Branson this year with Six (6) Military Vehicles in the Parade. Brads Medic Jeep and Chads Follow Me Jeep both were on display at the Branson IMAX all week long for the Documentary Film Festival. We also had the great honor to deliver gift baskets to the Branson Meadows WWII Veterans, the Spouses reunion, and the Sandbox reunion.
In Addition we was honored to be a part of the Vietnam Veterans Reunion and the WWII/Korea Reunions as well.
Camp Howze MVPA is also returning to the Liberty and 35 Christmas Market Event. This year our Kids Boot Camp will return so be sure to bring your family out to support us. We will also have a small museum displays this year with a bigger space. This year will start November 29th on Friday from 4pm-8pm, Saturday 10am-6pm, and Sunday noon-6pm.
