Saint Barbara’s Day Ball 2025

Join us for an evening steeped in tradition, camaraderie, and celebration at the 2025 Saint Barbara’s Day Ball, hosted by the 42nd Infantry Division Artillery (DIVARTY).

This time-honored event honors Saint Barbara, the patron saint of artillerymen, and recognizes the achievements and dedication of soldiers across the division. Formal dinner, dancing, and a live performance by the 42nd Infantry Division Band will make for an unforgettable night.

Although DIVARTY leads the planning and execution, event organization, ticketing, and nonprofit support are provided by the Washington Greys Support and Legacy, Inc., a 501(c)(3) affiliated with the 1st Battalion, 258th Field Artillery (NY). As in past years, we expect strong representation from New York’s 1-258 FA, and warmly welcome soldiers, family, and friends from across the 42nd Infantry Division's artillery community, including:

• 3rd Battalion, 112th Field Artillery (NJ)
• 1st Battalion, 101st Field Artillery (MA)
• And our partners from the 197th Field Artillery Brigade (NH) and their aligned units

✨ Special Recognition

As part of the evening’s program, we will also honor Command Sergeant Major Curtis Moss with his retirement ceremony. This will be a dedicated moment within the night’s festivities to recognize his outstanding career and service.
