Grotarian Event – USO Airport Center Tour

Join the Grotarians for a tour inside the largest USO Airport Center in the world.  Retired USMC Sergeant Major, Bobby Woods, who serves as the current Director of the USO Neil Ash Airport Center, will welcome the San Diego Rotary Club and give us a detailed tour through this amazing center and the public art that exists around and within this facility.  Staffed primarily by volunteers, the 10,000-square-foot stand-alone building across from Terminal 2 is open 18 hours a day, 365 days a year and served over 122,000 military men and women and their families last year.  Many are young Marines headed to and from MCRD for boot camp and Camp Pendleton for further training.

Food from Phil’s BBQ and beverages will be served outside on the patio at the end of the tour.
