ESC Meeting Tuesday & Lots of Events for Your Calendar!!

Hello Spouses!   First off, THANK YOU for all you do and the impact you make here at Mtn Home AFB.  Without all the amazing things both our spouses clubs and our volunteers do, we would not be able to do all the wonderful things for the families of our military members.  If you are new to MHAFB, know that the Enlisted and Officers Spouses have a solid relationship between the two of us and socialize, support and do our best to help one another, in the spirit of family and friendship.  Please keep in mind that the Enlisted Spouses Club is for any spouse of any branch, active, reserved or retired, and we would love input from the male spouses too!!  When it comes to our fundraisers and social, everyone is welcome to lend a hand whether military or community.  Please pass along this email to your fellow squadron spouse and make sure they are informed of all the great things happening.  The list at the end of this email is only a small taste!!

FSS Base Operational Hours for this holiday weekend can be seen here.. http://mhafbfun.com/temporary/Labor%20Day%20Hours%202013.jpg

First off, our next ESC meeting is this Tuesday, Sept 3rd at 6:30pm at Liberty (Base) Chapel.  We will briefly go over a lot of these upcoming events, and making our volunteer lists and afterwards, we'll be having a BUNCO Social, so if you have never played before, this will be a great opportunity to learn, as well as socialize and get to know some of the other spouses you may not have had a chance to meet, as the tables/teams rotate after every round.  Child care is provided, and if you have a teen that has been through the child care training at the Youth Center, feel free to have them tag along and help out!

If you haven't seen yet, before the meeting/social, there is a Dress Swap Event at the Chapel Tues, Sept 3rd from 4-6pm.  This event is designed for you to find a no cost option for the ball. If you have a gown you would like to lend to another military spouse for this event please contact me at the number below. No sales will be permitted at this event. ALL military spouses are encouraged to participate.  Participation is voluntary and at your own risk. POC: Tiffany Bodge (907) 347-8022, call/text with any questions or tiffanybodge@yahoo.com

Air Force Appreciation Day is next Saturday, Sept 7th in town at Carl Miller Park.  WE NEED VOLUNTEERS FOR FACE PAINTING!!  Contact me, if you would like to volunteer for an hour or 2, or enough to relieve for a break.  I will also be taking names at the meeting Tuesday.

Check out these upcoming events below, as well as the FSS Weekly Update below!!   If you have questions about anything, feel free to reply.  Have a safe and happy holiday weekend!!
