Volunteer Spotlight: The Lunch Brigade
The Lunch Brigade program is a partnership between NTPS and Joint Base Lewis McChord. Each month, a brigade visits a different school for recess, where the soldiers play games and talk with the students. We currently have Lunch Brigades at Pleasant Glade Elementary, Seven Oaks Elementary, Lakes Elementary, and Meadows Elementary. Thank you to the 16th Combat Aviation Brigade, the 46th Aviation Support Battalion, the 2-3 Infantry, the 51st Expeditionary Signal Battalion-Enhanced, and the 269th Brigade Support Battalion.
