Forty military moms and moms-to-be were honored on July 29, 2025, in a beautiful outpouring of gratitude and joy as Operation Shower, in partnership with Centinel Community Fund, hosted a heartwarming “Picnics and Pacifiers” -themed group baby shower in Oak Grove, Kentucky.
The event brought together expecting military families for an afternoon filled with laughter, connection, and appreciation — a chance to pause and celebrate the incredible strength and sacrifice of these women. The festive picnic-inspired celebration featured a catered lunch, fun games, and generous gifts, all in a vibrant setting adorned with gingham prints, balloons, and picnic basket decor.
Thanks to the unwavering support of the Centinel Community Fund, the event was brought to life with heartfelt intention. Each mom received a lavish shower-in-a-box filled with baby essentials and goodies, bringing smiles and tears of joy throughout the afternoon.
Gifts were generously provided by Diaper Genie, Angelcare, Infantino, Banz, Selah James, Skip Hop, and Nemah, ensuring each guest of honor left feeling cherished and prepared for the next chapter in their journey.
