35th Joint Service Academy Military Ball

Posted: 8/29/2021

ALWAYS REMEMBER: STRONGER TOGETHER

On December 26, 2021 the Joint Service Academy Military Ball will be celebrating its 35th anniversary. This year, the Military Ball will be hosted by the United States Naval Academy Parents’ Club of the Texas Gulf Coast. The Ball is a celebration to honor the commitment of the Midshipmen and Cadets of the five military academies from the Houston and surrounding areas.

The military ball is an amazing formal event which honors and celebrates these impressive Texas men and women who have sworn an oath to serve this great nation through military service. This year’s ball will be held at Moody Gardens in Galveston, Texas and the theme is Always Remember; Stronger Together. We hope that you will join us in embodying this theme as we place the spotlight on the 20th anniversary of the tragedy of 9/11, our ability to gather after a year fighting Covid-19, and these students’ sacrifice and dedication to serving the United States.
