The U.S. Navy will storm the beaches of Cheyenne next week for its first Navy Week in the capital city since 2015.

Coordinated by the Navy Office of Community Outreach, Navy Weeks are the Navy's signature outreach program, designed to give citizens the opportunity to learn about the Navy, its people and its importance to national security and prosperity.

"The Navy is excited to reconnect with the people of Cheyenne," said NAVCO’s Director, Cmdr. John Fage. "Our Navy Week in Cheyenne will allow us to show everyone what their Navy does for them and why having a strong Navy is critical to the American way of life."

Since 2005, the Navy Week program has served as the Navy’s flagship outreach effort into areas of the country without a significant Navy presence, with over 260 Navy Weeks held in more than 85 different U.S. markets.

"During a Navy Week, we coordinate about 75 outreach events with corporate, civic, government, education, media, veterans, community service and diversity organizations in the city," said NAVCO Navy Week Program Manager Lt. Cmdr. Benjamin Anderson.

LOOK: VIntage Postcards Showing-Off Cheyenne Frontier Days Through the Years

Postcards have been a thing since the mid-1800s. Sending pictures and short messages on card-stock paper to friends and families really took off in the first half of the 20th century. While not quite as popular today, they still exist, and collecting postcards even has a special name, Deltiology.

Postcards were made for a lot of things, like vacation destinations and events. Cheyenne Frontier Days was the source of many. On the auction site eBay we found a lot of vintage postcards with fascinating pictures of Cheyenne and the Daddy of 'Em All.
