April 19, 2010 Potluck Meeting
Hello all! We had a Potluck Meeting last night at the USO. For those that were there, thank you so much for coming! For those that couldn't make it, I hope to see you at our next meeting!
We had a great meeting! We shared some great food (a couple recipes to follow), we packed up some leftovers for Brandon and Lauren Newman (who just had a baby last week), we discussed the blog (www.vipersfrg.blogspot.com), discussed the Officer Positions and Functions, discussed our expectations/desires for future meetings and events, and discussed fundraising ideas. We also had a guest speaker from the USO.
Those that were interested in volunteering, thank you so much! I will be sending out a separate email soon with information on an Officer Meeting. At the Officer's Meeting, we will be going over the functions/roles/responsibilities of the positions you are volunteering for, brainstorming/planning future meetings and events, etc. If you did not get a chance to volunteer, but are still interested, please email me for information, we would love to have you at our Officer's Meeting.
If you haven't done so, yet, please become a follower on our blog. We will be posting information on upcoming events for HSL-48, FRG, USO, and NS Mayport, as well as other Jax events of interest.
Our next meeting will be Monday, May 17, 2010 at 6:00pm at the USO. More details coming soon.

April Potluck Meeting
Hello, Vipers!
Please remember that 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. If you are interested in volunteering, please email me for a list of positions and their responsibilities.
Please email or call me with any questions and/or suggestions!
Thank you,
Nicole Parkins, FRG President

For those that are not aware, the USO does No Dough (FREE) Dinners twice a month, on the Mondays before Payday (always from 5-7pm). There is a full 2010 No Dough Dinner Menu at the USO. I have a copy, so I will be posting the menu for each one as it gets close.
I will not be at this Monday's No Dough Dinner, as I have to work, but will see you all at the FRG Meeting on April 19 (info in separate blog post).
