Social Event

Killeen 1st Platoon Social with the American Veterans Mission

April 27, 2019

01:00 PM - 03:00 PM CDT

Killeen Platoon

Event overview

We have seen each other get dirty from our blue shirts and be ladies & gentlemen in our beautiful dresses and tuxedos. Now, it's time to enjoy another social event with each other, our family members, and even our fur babies at our next social event. Yes, dogs are allowed at Dana Peak Park and are welcome to attend with you! Please join your fellow platoon mates, volunteers, and platoon partners at Dana Peak Park for a picnic/BBQ on Saturday, April 27, 2019, from 1:00 P.M. to 3:00 P.M., CST. Our very own platoon member, Sylvia Torres, is planning this event for us in a less formal setting than the gala we had in March. You may stay shorter or longer depending on your heart's desire, and our grill master is ready to grill past 3:00 P.M. should it become necessary. Please join us for camaraderie over some music, hotdogs, hamburgers, and steak. We are looking forward to seeing you and your fur babies at this event! #CharlieMike

Who We Are

The Mission Continues is a national non-profit that empowers veterans to continue serving in our nation’s under-resourced communities, giving veterans the opportunity to keep serving even after the uniform comes off, right here at home. Our programs deploy veterans and volunteers to work alongside nonprofit partners and community leaders to improve educational resources, tackle food insecurity, foster neighborhood identity, and more.  

Who should volunteer?

Our service projects are for all veterans with a desire to continue their service and for all non-veterans that want to be part of a nationwide movement to transform communities. Please note, age and accessibility accommodations can be made at any project. There is room for everyone to make an impact.

What is a Service Platoon? 

Service Platoons are your opportunity to engage and connect with veterans and community members while generating community impact in a real and tangible way. Led by veteran volunteer platoon leaders, each platoon works with dedicated community partners and volunteers to provide the manpower and support that they need to help them do their work more effectively. 

We currently have service platoons in more than 40+ cities across the country that are having events at least once a month. Everyone is invited to serve, regardless of veteran status: a service platoon is for you if you have a passion for service.
