The program is for active-duty military members, retired veterans with ID cards, and Wright Patterson Air Force Base (WPAFB) government civilian employees in the Miami Valley area by offering two pairs of free tickets per military household to be chosen from a variety of performances from the 2015-2016 Ascend Season, with one pair to be used between September and December 2015 and one pair to be used between January and May 2016.
