USO-Metro recently brought a group of eight service members and their guests to Patriot Point for a weekend retreat as part of its Beyond the Base program.

“It was amazing,” USO-Metro Center Operations Supervisor Brittany Freshwater said. “Very much a nice, relaxing weekend away. They had the opportunity to do some activities and also the opportunity to do absolutely nothing at all.”

The group arrived at Patriot Point on Friday night. Saturday was full of activities such as crabbing, fishing, kayaking, paddle boarding and a visit to Patriot Point’s new shooting range.
