Mobile To Host First Navy Week Of 2022

MOBILE, Ala. — The U.S. Navy Office of Community Outreach is preparing to be in Mobile for the first Navy Week of the year during February 21-March 1. If health conditions permit, the Navy will conduct education and community outreach, including taking part in Mardi Gras in the city. Mobile Navy Week will bring 50-75 sailors from across the nation to volunteer throughout the community and discuss why the Navy matters to local and surrounding communities. Mobile Navy Week will feature in-person demonstrations, performances and engagements that will include Senior Navy Leaders, Namesake Sailors, Navy Band Southeast performances and masterclasses with Navy Musicians, Naval History and Heritage Command, demonstrations about the USS Constitution, USS Ceremonial Guard and U.S. Naval Meteorology and Oceanography Command. Since 2005, the Navy Week program has served as the Navy’s flagship outreach effort to regions without a significant Navy presence. More than 250 Navy Weeks have been held in more than 80 different U.S. markets.
