The Chico Air Museum hosted a family day event at the Chico Regional Airport on May 6, 2023, in Chico, California. Airmen from the 9th Reconnaissance Wing at Beale Air Force Base and local Air Force and Space Force recruiters were invited to participate. Technicians from the 9th Civil Engineer Squadron Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) brought different equipment including the EOD blast suit, which they use when inspecting bombs for protection. The 9th Security Forces Squadron K-9 unit conducted K-9 demonstrations for the public by simulating scenarios that also serve as training for the Airmen and the K-9’s. The family day event served to showcase and educate the local community on the different missions at Beale. Events like these create and strengthen trust with community members and establish partnerships with recruiters in support of community involvement.
