Please come on out to see old friends and/or make new friends as schools will start on Wednesday, 14 Aug 13.

Additionally, there will be various types of games for the children to participate in, build friendship, and winning more school supplies and other goodies.

Back to School Back Pack Bash - Monday, August 12, 2013

 

There has been a lot of work going on behind the scenes to ensure this event comes off without any problems.  We had quite a few volunteers to stuff the backpacks.  However, we are in need of help on the day of the event so all the kids can have fun as they get the needed supplies to be successful in school.

 

What do we need:

 

We need people to help out at the various stations during the event and afterwards for clean up.  The event time is 3-6pm and clean up is 6pm-?   Right now we are about half manned.  There will be over 250 kids taking part in this event and any help would be appreciated. If you said you were going to help, great!  PLEASE respond and let me know when.  Our Gunfighter troops have really stepped up to ensure a successful Bash and we are looking to the rest of you to follow suit.

 

I need cookies/goodies.  We are asking for at least a dozen of whatever you want to bring.  Please keep the heat in mind when baking.  If you are baking challenged or don't have time, the commissary is open.  If you don't remember until Monday, the BX sells cookies!!  Beth and I will be taking donations in the upstairs lobby by Moxie on Monday the 12th from 8-noon.  If you miss us, please stop by Gunfighter Park and drop them off at the bake sale table by 1pm. The monies raised helps support the AFAD float and the Christmas party!  So bake or shop away--it benefits you!

 

Don't forget---

Welcoming Tami

MDSS (Medical Support Squadron) will change leadership next month (June 17 is the change of command).  Lt. Col Bob Corby, his wife, Tami, and son will soon be joining the MDG Gunfighter Medics.    I thought it might be interesting to learn a little bit about Tami, before she arrives.  By the way, Tami will be the new MDG spouses communication person, so she'll be sending out the emails soon and updating the blog for all of you.

  

A few Tami facts...

Family: married to my wonderful husband for over 20 years, one 8

year boy and two dogs. We try and do a lot of our activities 

together, exploring new areas and races.

Hobbies/interests: I like the outdoors, animals, exercise, running

 (especially running races). I like reading-when time allows-

motorcycle rides, gardening, craft stuff, baking... I am pretty 

eclectic in what I like to do, so not too much I haven't tried or 

wouldn't be willing to try.

Please join me in welcoming Tami and her family next month when they arrive.
