OPSEC - Navy Operations Security

Always keep Navy Operations Security in mind.  In the Navy, it's essential to remember that "loose lips sink ships."  OPSEC is everyone's responsibility. 

DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.  

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."

Should I just put the info out here, it'd be nice to know how many are coming & if people are just bringing for themselves or what.  The amount of people will help determine location...............

Oh, and football, and track - but the scheduling conflict, if there is one would be for trap. 
Comment by Jen - Ship10mom(Div340) on June 22, 2011 at 11:58am
Kris - he shoots trap, he's on a team at our local club.

jen - what does  #2 participate in?
Comment by Jen - Ship10mom(Div340) on June 22, 2011 at 11:41am

Kris - sounds good to me!  Where ever you book a pavillion, just let us know the address so we can GPS or mapquest of whatever would be awesome! 

Thanks again everyone!  Can't wait!  Son #2 might have a state shoot that weekend, still checking on that. I hope not 'cuz I don't want to have to choose between the two - I want to make both!

hey, not to sound like a soak or anything, just looking for stuff to do!  LOL  :)
Comment by Kris, Stevens mom on June 21, 2011 at 11:18am

Leinies does have a good tour - LOL 

Eau Claire has lots of parks (even the guy from Stevens Point told me we had a lot to offer), stuff to do - nice mall, lots of restaruants, semi professional baseball & football teams, etc.

If its not a big issue I say lets move our meet & greet city.  I can easily get a park/pavillion saved.  All our parks are on water & really are nice.  I would plan for Carson Park or Riverside Park.

Please let me know. thanks

I was going to ask if anyone wanted to join me for a tour of the brewery at Point, but Leinie's is just down the road from EauClaire....

I'm about 20 minutes north of Milwaukee and am planning on going wherever it is.  it would just be me from my family (unless I've got a sailor in town!)
