I am new to this group but is this group still active as I am a newby to this as my son graduated 1-7-11 and is still in GL going to A school . His field is FC-Fire controlman...I live up in the valley springs area and  would love to have N4M's in my area even though  Sacramento is a drive but I can go there onece in awhile. My step son is 22 years of age and really does not tell me a whole lot of his school. Help...with some information and just lots of  support I am looking for.

Heloisa, contact me about the USS GW. I don't want to leave anyone out... :-D Carol

hi. my thanksgiving was okay. how bout yours? my fiancee called me today.. we spoke for about 24 mins. he's doing well! :]

Happy Thanksgiving. How is your sailor doing? Are you finish with school? Have you had a chance to look at the 2010 Calendar? Please let me know if you have any suggestions that we should incorporate. I know from reading the earlier posts on our comment wall that you had done a great deal to get the group going and set a welcoming tone. It has turned out to be a great group with very supportive members. I know many of the newer members (new as of this year like me) who joined after you started back at school are looking forward to getting to know you better.
Regards, Bea

hello.

Dear Heloisa,
I had sent a couple of suggestions to Elle on making a group's page (for any group) more efficient. She thought they were good ideas and suggested adding me as the Admin for Northern California Navy Moms Group. This is strictly temporary.There will be no changes to the appearance, name or starter of the group. I don't intend to moderate comments. You are the only one who should do that since you are the starter (by default moderator).
I would be creating a category "OUR EVENTS" to put the 1) master calendar of meet & greets for next year 2) Summary of the Events with links to RSVP and 3) guideline to organizing/hosting an event and 4) Protocol if a recruiter or other Navy personnel comes as guest (s) - Jody G provided me with some guidelines.
Since your response to my inquiry about the word change on the group's page, I had sent you a number of messages, include a friend request but I had not heard from you. Someone had mentioned they you were going back to school and was extremely busy. When you are done and would like resume being the admin, I will be pleased to step back.
When my son started in the Navy, N4M did not exist. I just did the best I could by myself. After I joined N4M and discovered the North Calif group, I realized there were many going through what I had gone through. Because of the way things are set up, there are no notifications going to a new member about each of the groups. I went on an individual campaign to search out N4M members who were unaware of the North Calif group and to send invitations to join the group. I started that in August. Since then, we have had an increase of 80 members from 110 to 190. My business has been slow this year, so I have time to help out. Next year, I hope the economy improves and I am signing up to get my RE Broker's license next year and will be less active anyway.
Regards, Bea.

Oh gosh, I feel badly that I did not respond. Things have been a bit busy. I had a cold, then training for my church work. The M&G was very nice. She worked very hard - and had quite a wonderful display of food. Lots of folks from all over. Hopefully in the future we can get together. How are things for you?

WEll, congratulations on ya'lls decision! Jorge has been back 3 times without me- to Sete Lagoas, Maraba, Belo Horizonte, Rio and Sapucaia. WE live in a small town and both had good jobs ten years ago, but now he drives 3 1/2 hrs to Beaumont to work and I havn't had work in 2 yrs. If it was within our means, I would be going with him to Brazil each time! But we do have some land here and I raise Appaloosas - my dream, so.. there is some trade off! Jorge just said he's gonna do that too - stay there 6 months. LOL

I just visited with my brother who was in for 20 years. If Nathan does stay, he can expect great benefits and life-long privileges. I listen to my brother telling me everything he qualifies for, gets discounts, etc. and I am AMAZED!!!
