DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

Meeting Tues at 11am at Wild River Pizza in Grants Pass
Anyone interested, my new friend (Calbrans) wants to meet Tuesday in Grants Pass for lunch. I am easy to find - I have a black labradoodle service dog with me (Odi). Where to meet Calbrans...time....unless it does not work for you can we do 11am at Wild River Pizza?
Grace Rae - add me as a friend or whatever to send me a private message
Hey ladies.. is there anyone thats close to i-5 or 99 in cali or oregon? Im moving from washington to southern california and im driving alone with my 4 year old and 5 month old and just wanted to try to connect with some moms along the way in case of emergencies thank you so much!! message me if you can help
On the Oregon/Washington Mom's we have discussed a get together in Grant's Pass. Any suggestions on when or where? I would much prefer lunchtime if that works for others...
From JoMomma's hubby, Ed. Looks like we are starting to make some headway on the Southern Oregon group, my older sister who retired as a Commander in the Navy will be leaving Grants Pass for northern Washington in a couple of weeks. She has been living in the Merlin for about 8 years.
Message me if you want - I am just outside of Grants Pass - I bet there are many more of us Navy Moms local
Wow, this group looks really dated. We need to get it going again. Our son is from Eugene, home of the Fighting Ducks, which is pretty darn close to being in Southern Oregon.
