Be My Neighbor Day at Fort Cavazos was a grr-ific day! 🐯 We had the pleasure of teaming up with Daniel Tiger, Fred Rogers Productions, PNC Grow Up Great, and The Tom Ramsey Foundation to celebrate our amazing military families🫶 From an unforgettable performance by Daniel, to giving away 1,000 bike vouchers to some very special kids, it was a day full of smiles and joy. 🚲 A BIG thank you to all of our partners and families who joined us for neighborly fun and for helping to make this day so meaningful!💛 #BeMyNeighborDay #PNCGrowUpGreat #militaryfamilies
