What Are National Guard Events?
National Guard events are free, family-friendly opportunities to meet real Guard Soldiers, explore military careers, and learn about benefits like Federal Tuition Assistance, the Post-9/11 GI Bill, healthcare, and signing bonuses. Events include Guard For A Day experiences, capability showcases, community events, and unit open houses held across the country.
Whether you're a high school student exploring options, a college student looking for tuition help, or a working professional considering a career change, Guard events let you see the National Guard up close — no commitment required.
Events are hosted by your state's Army National Guard recruiting team. RSVP online, show up, and discover what the Guard can offer you.
