FOLSOM, Calif./EWORLDWIRE/July 14, 2008 --- Each annual Marine Parents United Conference educates, uplifts, inspires, and supports Marine parents. For the Fifth Annual Marine Parents United Conference from July 25-27, 2008, in Chantilly, Va., NewsBlaze.com and TalkingWithHeroes.com will be providing video and radio coverage Alan Gray, editor-in-chief of NewsBlaze, said, "Marine Parents United is a dynamic, group that always executes its mission and works well with other military support groups - we are proud to offer our support. Marine Parents United and Soldiers Angels made it possible for NewsBlaze to video The Marine Experience."
At the conference, attendees take a lesson in the martial arts program, see through a night vision program and put that learning experience to the ISMAT. Parents also brave the perils of shopping at the PX, pump their adrenaline, and sharpen those shooting skills in preparation for The Marine Experience.
Marcia Gould, founding member of Marine Parents United, said "Our mission is to help marines and their families. We present a 'Marine Mall' for non-profit organizations and commercial vendors all day Saturday, along with an auction for fundraising. Donations from corporations, organizations, and individuals help keep costs down for attendees so many military families can take advantage of this conference."
Joyce Gilmour, military mom and treasurer of Marine Parents United, said, "Parents and others can still take part in The Marine Experience 2008." Rooms are available at $99 per night; contact today to ensure a place.
