# Good food and fun highlight patriotic event on DSCR

By Leon Moore, Acting Chief of Public AffairsDLA Aviation Public Affairs Office

                RICHMOND, Va.  –              
The unmistakable aroma of hot dogs, hamburgers, fried chicken, and chili filled the air in the cafeteria of the Defense Logistics Agency Aviation’s Operations Center (bldg. 46) on Defense Supply Center Richmond Virginia, July 12.

DLA Installation Management Richmond’s Civilian Welfare Fund and Morale, Welfare and Recreation’s Patriotic Picnic, drew an estimated crowd of roughly 800 employees. In addition to the good eats, music and a chili cook off competition highlighted the event.

“I think the Patriotic Picnic turned out great. The volunteers that assisted us were phenomenal, the turnout was higher than we expected, and we received a lot of positive feedback,” said Katherine Brixen. She’s the marketing manager for MWR Richmond. “The event gave DSCR employees the chance to get out of their offices together to enjoy food and music in a community setting.”
