Since 1955, spouses of enlisted personnel at Offutt Air Force Base have been coming together to effectively coordinate social, charitable and educational activities that benefit Offutt Air Force Base, Bellevue and the greater Omaha area. We are the Offutt Enlisted Spouses Club (OESC).
We are “spouses supporting spouses through volunteerism and friendship” for over 70 years. Help us continue our legacy of support by becoming a member.
Featured Events and Programs
Holiday Bazaar
Get ready for the 14th Annual OESC Holiday Bazaar on Saturday, November 14, 2026, at the Omaha Kroc Center, 2825 Y Street in Omaha.
Shop local makers and small businesses offering handmade goods, home décor, clothing, jewelry, seasonal items, gifts, and more. Be sure to visit the OESC bake sale for individually packaged treats available with a donation.
Proceeds support OESC scholarships for military spouses and dependents pursuing higher education. Admission is $2, children 12 and under are free, and Omaha Kroc Center members receive complimentary admission.
Vendor applications are now open. Visit the Holiday Bazaar page for event details, vendor requirements, and the official application.
Veteran’s Home Bingo
Each month, on a Saturday, OESC volunteers visit the residents of the Eastern Nebraska Veterans Home for a fun and meaningful afternoon of bingo. Volunteers help call numbers, organize cards, and hand out prizes—bringing conversation, connection, and a lot of smiles to those who have served our country.
It’s a simple way to make a big difference. Join us and be part of this rewarding, heartwarming experience!
Winter Wonderland
Winter Wonderland was held on Friday, December 5, 2025, from 6–8 p.m. at the Offutt Event Center, welcoming Active Duty and Retired enlisted service members and their families for a festive evening of holiday fun and community connection. This cherished annual event creates a warm, inclusive space for enlisted families to celebrate the season together.
Families enjoyed photos with Santa, holiday crafts, gifts for children 12 & under, and pizza and beverages, with the event serving over 250 children throughout the evening.
OESC extends sincere thanks to the volunteers and supporters who helped make this event possible. Details for future Winter Wonderland events will be shared as they become available.
Upcoming General Membership Meetings
September 2026
Join us for our September General Membership Meeting on Thursday, September 3, at 6:30 p.m. at The Pointe at Rising View.
This month, bring your best-of-the-best recipe—the appetizer everyone requests, the entrée that disappears first, the dessert people still talk about, or anything else you make better than anyone. All types of dishes are welcome, but only the crowd favorites will take home prizes. Come ready to share, sample, and see whose signature dish comes out on top!
October 2026
Get creative at our October General Membership Meeting on Thursday, October 1, at 6:30 p.m. at The Pointe at Rising View.
This month is all about boards, bites, and creative grazing. Bring your favorite charcuterie-style creation, whether it features meat and cheese, breakfast foods, tacos, pickles, desserts, fruit, candy, or another delicious theme. A traditional wooden board is completely optional—trays, plates, baking sheets, and other snack-holding surfaces are welcome. Arrange something tasty and come ready to graze!
November 2026
Warm up with us at our November General Membership Meeting on Thursday, November 5, at 6:30 p.m. at The Pointe at Rising View.
This month’s theme is Cozy Comfort Foods. Bring a favorite soup, chili, dip, casserole, shredded meat, slow-cooker specialty, bread, hearty side, or anything else warm and satisfying. If it simmers all day, feeds a crowd, or makes the whole house smell amazing, it belongs at this potluck. Join us for a relaxed evening of comforting food and conversation.
Members and prospective members are welcome at all General Membership Meetings. Prospective members may attend up to two events before joining. Children may attend, with family seating available; please bring quiet activities for kids during the business portion of the meeting.
The Offutt Enlisted Spouses Club does not meet in January, as we have a members-only celebration instead.
