Hi, Birdman's Mom. My son is in Ship 11 Div 119. Your son and my son are brother groups so they do alot together. I am attending the meet and greet. Where are you staying. I would like to maybe go together to save on cab. I am staying at Navy Lodge.
Thanks CatMom509!
son is in 920 too - honor guard drill team :)
diannep ~ Re the travel - we booked at Springhill Suites on the AAA website itself. Much better deal than calling direct and getting the grad rate discount which wasn't so great.
As a side note, got a 20 minute call from my son yesterday who is in Div. 920 as well!!! He's sick, but said a lot of them are, and had been on LLD for a couple of days. Otherwise, he sounded pretty good; tired, but good!
Good Day!
"For we are God's masterpiece. He created
us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the
good things he planned for us long ago."
Ephesians 2:10
Good morning everyone!
*"bookmark" the POSTS you have already read.....
Birdman'sMom: Please scroll down to my post below yours for the link to the MeetandGreet.
Sometimes it helps if you scroll through past posts because many of your questions may be answered!
Here's hint: Post often, even if a Good Morning or Good Afternoon.....to "bookmark" the post you have already read. That way, you won't spend your time re-reading posts that you already read. That is what we N4Moms veterans do....so that we can answer new questions!
If you have a question and don't see it in the posts, or in the PAGES section to the right/top of this page, please post it! We will be happy to answer it!
