The Navy Office of Community Outreach (NAVCO) coordinates Navy Weeks.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are thrilled to bring the Navy to Fort Worth,&#8221; said NAVCO&#8217;s director, Cmdr. Anthony Falvo. \u201cThough our Navy is deployed around-the-world and around-the-clock, the Navy Week program allows us to showcase our Navy in places that don\u2019t enjoy an everyday naval presence. Most importantly it affords us the opportunity to highlight our most important asset \u2013 the highly skilled men and women of the United States Navy who ensure our warfighting advantage to preserve our American way of life.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">Since 2005, the Navy Week program has served as the Navy\u2019s flagship outreach effort to regions without a significant Navy presence, with over 300 Navy Weeks held in more than 95 different U.S. markets.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">\u201cOur mission is to connect with the heartbeat of each community and we strive to make a lasting impact on the Sailors, partners and community members,\u201d said NAVCO Navy Week program manager, Lt. Caroline Ready. \u201cWe coordinate with corporations, civic and community service organizations, local government, educational institutions, media, and veterans to give the community as many opportunities as possible to engage with their Navy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For more information on Fort Worth Navy Week, visit <a href=\"https:\/\/outreach.navy.mil\">https:\/\/outreach.navy.mil<\/a> or contact Ensign Jordyn Diomede at (901) 874-5823 or\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:jordyn.s.diomede.mil@us.navy.mil\">jordyn.s.diomede.mil@us.navy.mil<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fort Worth Navy Week will bring between 50 to 75 Sailors from across the nation to volunteer throughout the community and discuss why the Navy matters to Fort Worth.\u00a0This will be the seventh Navy Week hosted by Fort Worth and the surrounding communities.
