March 28, 2010 Meet n Greet

On March 28th, the HSL-48 FRG met for our very first Meet n Greet.  Thank you to all that came to show your support and a BIG thank you to all of those that helped!

We discussed the basics of what we are hoping to get out of the group (monthly meetings, holiday parties, welcoming new members, food/support for new parents and those with a sick family member, care packages with crafts made by the FRG children, halfway parties, girls' nights out, homecoming signs and parties, etc).  We will also have guest speakers, such as Fleet & Family Support Center, USO, Military Onesource, MWR.  We will be doing fundraisers to fund all of these events.  We welcome any and all suggestions for any of the above.  We also briefly discussed the need for FRG Officers (such as Vice President, Secretary/Treasurer, Program Coordinator).  As the group grows, the addition of volunteer committees may become necessary.  I've asked those interested in volunteering to email me for more information (you may post a comment if you do not have my email address and I will email you, all comments are moderated so will not be shown publicly until approved).  During the meeting, the kids made a card and poster to send to those deployed.  Thank you to the kids, they did a great job!

Our next meeting will be at the USO on Monday, April 19, 2010 at 6pm.  This meeting will be a Potluck, so please bring a dish to share if you can.  Childcare will be provided, so please bring the whole family (or at least bring a container to pack up a meal for whoever stays home).  We are hoping to discuss in more detail what we would like to gain from the group, as well as the volunteer positions that are available and need to be filled.

Please email or call me with any questions and/or suggestions!

Thank you,

Nicole Parkins, FRG President
