PepsiCo joined the St. Louis Blues, Blues Better Halves and St. Louis-based Operation Shower to host a group baby shower for military moms and moms-to-be. The event was held on Thursday, November 2, 2023 at the Enterprise Center’s Scott Credit Union Rinkside Club in St. Louis. All of the attending moms are active-duty military members or the spouses or partners of active-duty or deployed members of Whiteman Air Force Base, Fort Leonard Wood and other Missouri military bases.
Presented by PepsiCo, the “Music to our Ears”-themed event included a catered lunch, raffles, and contests with prizes. Guests also received Operation Shower’s signature Showers in a Box – gifts of high-quality products for mothers and babies that were donated by generous companies including PepsiCo, the St. Louis Blues, Dr. Brown’s, United Through Reading, Diaper Genie, Delta Children, St. Louis Blues, Chicco and Evenflo. Beyond the array of tangible items the moms will receive, the moms will have the opportunity to share camaraderie and meet other women who are also experiencing motherhood.
“PepsiCo has a long legacy of supporting America’s military families, and we are delighted to continue our strong partnership with Operation Shower to show our tremendous gratitude to all of the amazing moms being honored at this special shower,” said PepsiCo Senior Market Director Melissa Bazan. “It’s a privilege to have the opportunity to recognize military moms and families and thank them for the immeasurable sacrifices they make in service to our country.”
What an incredibly wonderful day this was. It was so nice to shower military families with our friends PepsiCo and to do so again with the St. Louis Blues and the Blues Better Halves.
