Families will fill the McNamara Headquarters Complex grounds to enjoy activities ranging from bingo to basketball during the 2023 HQC Family Day. The free event, open to armed service members, civilians, and their family members and friends, hosted by the DLA Morale, Welfare and Recreation program office. Held annually, the celebration aims to bring HQC employees and their families together for fun and camaraderie. An early morning “fun” run/walk hosted by the HQC Fitness Center will start activities for those wishing to beat the afternoon heat. After a formal kickoff hosted by DLA Director Army Lt. Gen. Daryly Williams, the amusement rides, games and entertainment located in and around the building will open for business. Inside, participants will visit exhibits, eat a special menu from the HQC Café or watch movies in the HQC Auditorium. Several artists will provide caricatures to adults and children alike. Outside, the HQC Pondis a hub of activity as children and parents climbed into paddleboats and took off for a spin around the basin. In between the movies and amusement rides, children could also play bingo, sing karaoke, attempt the limbo or shoot 3-pointers on the basketball court. For those looking to grab a bite to eat, on-site food vendors offered everything from ice cream and snow cones to chicken sandwiches and alligator bites.
