UPDATE 2 - TERMINAL CHANGE - TERMINAL 5 ARRIVAL

LAX Snowball Express 2018 - PART 2
 
This is a very special Help On The Home Front Event.
 
Background:

SBE was established for the surviving Spouses and Children of our fallen Heroes from Iraq and Afghanistan. Snow Ball Express is a trip sponsored by American Airlines and the Gary Sinise Foundation, that brings Families from all over the Country to Orlando, Florida, were the Families are treated to entertainment and various activities. This year the SBE will leave LAX on Saturday, 8 December and return on Wednesday, 12 December 2018.

When the Families return on 12 December 2018 the PGR will meet the Families at the baggage claim area in Terminal 4. We will help the Families with their baggage again. Some families will go back to the departure hotel (the PGR will escort) while others will have their baggage loaded into waiting transportation. Again we will be of whatever assistance the Families need.

NOTE: Plan to park in Parking Structure 4 (No charge for motorcycles, validation will be available for cages) or Bob Hope USO (No parking for cages at the USO).

NOTE: This mission posting is to facilitate your voluntary participation in honoring these Gold Star families. For those interested, and all are welcome, we will be accompanying the families from the airport back to the hotel, or helping them load into their local transportation. Please see the time table if you would like to participate.
