September 2, 2011 at 5:55 am | Category: Events

Join Kristin with The TOUR Championship by Coca-Cola and Operation Shower as they host a ?Red, White and Coo? Shower at East Lake Golf Club on Wednesday, September 21 from 11 a.m. ? 1 p.m.! 40 military moms-to-be will be hosted to the dream baby shower they deserve courtesy of the TOUR Championship by Coca-Cola and Operation Shower. The shower will be held at historic East Lake Golf Club from 11 a.m. ? 1 p.m.

At the baby shower, Operation Shower will deliver its signature ?showers-in-a box?, which will be packed with essential baby supplies, clothing, toys, books, blankets and much more courtesy of donations by sponsors Carousel Designs, Layla Grayce, Radio Flyer and many other generous donors. The baby shower will be hosted for a group of pregnant women from Ft. Benning near Columbus, Ga. and Ft. Gordon near Augusta, Ga. whose husbands are deployed. Beyond these tangible items, the most meaningful gift may be the unique opportunity for the moms to find comfort and support from other women in the same situation as they celebrate this milestone.

?Operation Shower is thrilled to be honoring these women with a joyous day just for them,? said Chief Shower Officer LeAnn Morrissey. ?Our partnership with the TOUR Championship by Coca-Cola provides us with the opportunity to come to Atlanta for the first time and reach more and more deserving military families. We are so grateful to our generous sponsors like Carousel Designs and others who make these showers possible.?

?All of us at Carousel Designs feel honored to help provide a special day for military moms-to-be and their families,? said Jonathan Hartley, Carousel Designs CEO. ?As a veteran-owned company with several members of our own extended family
