TRAVIS AIR FORCE BASE, Calif. – Military children can be an engineer for the day during Month of the Military Child by building their own Lego City hero April 7 at the Travis AFB Main Exchange.

 The Lego “Heroes Needed” event will be from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. April 7 at the Travis Exchange Main Store and helps military brats find their inner heroes while celebrating creativity. This event will allow children to build city scenes to bring out the heroism within them. The Lego kits will come complete with monster trucks, forest tractors, police scenes and beach scenes with families having fun together.

 Military children four and older will receive a certificate for participating.

 “Science, technology, engineering and mathematics skills will continue to be in high demand as children grow up,” said Phonda Bishop, Exchange facility manager. “It’s an honor to share this activity with our military kids so they can have fun bringing their imagination to life.” 

 The Lego “Heroes Needed” event is one of several in-store activities planned by the Army & Air Force Exchange Service in celebration of Month of the Military Child, which every April recognizes the contributions of warfighters’ children to the armed forces community.
